[Endoscopic and immunomorphological changes in the mucosa of the operated stomach].

The method of dynamic endoscopic observation was used in examination of 288 patients after resections of the stomach. Four types of the inflammatory reaction of the gastric stump mucosa and of the anastomosed intestine were found out depending on the degree and spread of the inflammatory alterations during the postoperative period. A correlation was established between the type of inflammatory and immunomorphological changes and the probability of the appearance of peptic ulcer of the anastomosis.
