[Resorption of fats and carbohydrates following stomach resection and gastrectomy].

125I- and 14C-labelled triolein were used for the examination of fat absorption in patients after gastric surgery. Fat absorption decreased significantly after total and subtotal proximal gastrectomy, but less after distal gastric resection. Carbohydrate absorption, as measured by D-Xylose test, increased in the same manner after both total and partial gastrectomy.
