[Surgical treatment of afferent loop syndrome].

Included is a case study of the afferent loop syndrome after subtotal gastric resection for a peptic ulcer. A 60 year old woman was successfully treated by the ligature of the afferent loop with the anastomosis between efferent loop and the duodenum. By means of this modification the following aims were achieved: 1 elimination of the antiperistaltic function of the afferent loop anastomosed "from the left", 2-replacement of resected stomach by means of anastomosis between the efferent loop and the duodenum.
