[Postoperative alkaline reflux gastritis].
A statistic is discussed, concerning 88 cases of troncular vagotomies in which a total of 12 cases of reflux alcaline gastritis are mentioned. One of these necessitated a reintervention which is presented in detail. Reflux postoperative gastritis is a well defined entity in the group of disturbances occuring in patients with stomach surgical interventions. The cause is the bile reflux and that of alcaline duodenal fluids in the gastric stump. Short-circuiting of this reflux by a Roux-type anastomosis is the preferred procedure due to its simplicity and efficiency.
