| Abstract: | In equal groups of patients with duodenal ulcers truncal vagotomy with draining operations were performed in 98 patients, gastric resection--in 196 patients. The observations lasted from 2 to 7 years. Immediate lethal outcomes did not take place after vagotomy. Six patients died after gastric resection (3.05%). Postoperative complications were observed in 8% and 22.7% correspondingly. In remote periods after vagotomy 75% of the patients were referred to the I and II group (by the Wisik scale), 12% of patients--to the III group, 12%--to the IV group, after gastric resection--70%, 20% and 10% correspondingly. |
