Since it was described in 19701\*\*, highly selective vagotomy has become an established treatment for duodenal ulceration. Many, however, would regard the presence of gastric outlet obstruction as a contraindication to the procedure3s4.

## Summary A proximal gastric vagotomy (PGV) prevented experimental duodenal ulcers in rats for only 5 days and thereafter all rats developed duodenal ulceration. In sham-operated rats the mean stimulated gastric acid output was 186 μmol/60 min. Immediately following a PGV there was a significant d
## Abstract Gastric emptying of isotopically labelled solid meals was studied in normal human subjects and in 30 patients who had had an operation for chronic duodenal ulcer. Each patient had a vagotomy of the whole stomach combined with either a Finney pyloroplasty to produce a large gastric outle
## Abstract The rate of gastric emptying was estimated in 29 patients with duodenal ulcers, before and after vagotomy and drainage operations, by measuring the disappearance from the stomach of a standard meal containing radioactive chromium. When Heineke-Mikulicz pyloroplasty accompanied vagotomy
