[Non-resecting surgery for gastroduodenal ulcer. II. Indication and technique (author's transl)].

The indication for the non-resecting combination method arises if the presence of genuine ulcer disease is confirmed by complete diagnostic measures (history, roentgenologic examination, endoscopy, secretion analysis and possibly psychic testing). An extended indication exists for erosive gastritis with hypersecretion, for hiatal hernia with reflux esophagitis (Berman's syndrome), for cardiospasm and prophylaxis of hemorrhage. The technique yields permanent curative results if a complete selective proximal vagotomy is combined with a pyloroplasty suitable in form and function. This is also true for duodenal ulcer. In 22% of cases of gastric ulcer, selective vagotomy with antrectomy is necessary.

[Removal of esophagus using a one-stage repair].

The article deals with the results of operations performed on 306 patients for extirpation of the esophagus and one-stage total esophagoplasty with the formation of the anastomosis on the neck. The operation was conducted on 178 patients with carcinoma and 128 patients with benign esophageal strictures. The authors claim this operation to be the operation of choice in esophageal carcinoma, cardioesophageal carcinoma, burn and peptic strictures, and in patients with stage IV cardiospasm. An isoperistaltic gastric tube or the large intestine is used for replacement of the esophagus. The postoperative mortality rate was 3.3%. The immediate and late-term results of this operation are much better than those of the other types of esophagoplasty. The authors recommend the operation to be used widely in the practice of specialized clinics for the management of the above mentioned diseases.

[Instrumental esophageal perforations--diagnosis and treatment (author's transl)].

In the last 6 years 16 patients with an iatrogenic esophageal lesion have been treated. Most frequently this lesion results from esophagoscopies and bouginages. Laying of a gastric tube, extraction of a foreign body or dilatation of a cardiospasm are rare reasons for a lesion. Only three patients suffered from cancer. The early diagnosis and immediately operation is decisive for the therapy's success. The operation with primary closure of the defect and drainage should be aspired. After this the best results are levelled. If the surgical operation is carried on after the 24-hours limit, the operation itself is of minor importance as the lethality of these patients is very high and does not depend on the kind of therapy.
