[Roentgenological assessment of conservative surgery outcomes in duodenal ulcer].
The results of duodenal ulcer treatment have been analyzed for 240 patients. Selective proximal vagotomy (SPV) was performed in 198 patients with uncomplicated disease, and SPV with gastroduodenoanastomosis (SPV + GDA) was conducted in 42 patients with different ulcer complications. All the patients were examined by X-ray before the operation and throughout 10-14 days, 2-3 months, 1 year and so on each year within 10-15 years. X-ray evidence was compared with operative, endoscopy and clinical findings. SPV brought a complete recovery in 92.5 while SPV + GDA in 86% of cases. Neither SPV nor SPV+GDA contribute to development of cholelithiasis.
