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 gastric emptying was observed to be slowed, whereas after vagotomy and Fitmey pyloroplasty the rate of gastric emptying was more rapid when compared with the preoperative rate. Gastric emptying after vagotomy and gastrojejunostomy showed no consistent alteration in rate. Temporary gastric stasis occurred in the early postoperative period after vagotomy and drainage procedures.

## 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 ΞΌmol/60 min. Immediately following a PGV there was a significant d

## Abstract A consecutive series of 25 patients with chronic duodenal ulcer has been treated by highly selective vagotomy without a drainage procedure. The vagal fibres passing to the distal 5–7 cm. of the stomachβ€”the nerves of Latarjetβ€”were left intact, as were the hepatic and coeliac branches of
