[Long-term results of gastric resection with reconstruction, using the Billroth I method].

Clinical, radiological and endoscopic results at follow-up about 1-5 yr after surgery in a series of 62 patients subjected to Billroth I resection are compared with those in the literature. Recurrence of ulcers was observed in 8% (as opposed to 5% with the Billroth II). In addition, there was a marked reduction in the incidence of post-resection diseases, with less serious forms of dumping, sounder digestion, and smaller weight losses.

[Problems in emergency surgery: acute mesenteric vascular occlusion].

Twenty-one cases of acute mesenteric occlusion are presented. Stress is laid on the difficulty of reaching a diagnosis in time to enable disobstruction to be carried out. In the reported series, diagnosis was established 1-8 days after the onset of symptoms. When radical surgery was performed (extensive resection occasionally coupled with right hemicolectomy), postoperative mortality was high and transit and nutritional problems brought about by the shortness of the residual gut were encountered.
