Steatorrhoea and Diarrhoea after Vagotomy: a Comparison of Drainage Procedures.
نویسنده
چکیده
Steatorrhoea and diarrhoea follow all types of gastric surgery but their incidence is probably highest when vagotomy is performed. This investigation was undertaken in an attempt to answer the following questions: What is the incidence of diarrhoea and steatorrhoea after vagotomy accompanied by either pyloroplasty or gastrojejunostomy? Is there a significant difference in the incidence of steatorrhoea and diarrhoea with these two types of drainage procedure? What effect does steatorrhoea, or diarrhoea, or both, have on the patient's body weight?

متن کاملFaecal fat excretion after truncal, selective, and highly selective vagotomy for duodenal ulcer.
Faecal fat excretion was measured on a metabolic ward in 16 patients with duodenal ulcer before operation, and in patients who were in good health more than one year after truncal vagotomy and pyloroplasty (n = 11), bilateral selective vagotomy and pyloroplasty (n = 9), or highly selective vagotomy without a drainage procedure (HSV, n = 12). Excretion of faecal fat was significantly greater (p ...
متن کاملPost-prandial changes in PH and electrolyte concentration, in the upper jejunum after truncal vagotomy and drainage in man.
The changes in pH and concentration of electrolytes in the jejunal lumen after a hypertonic fluid meal have been studied after truncal vagotomy and drainage, with and without diarrhoea. The results show that, in these respects, there are no specific changes in the jejunal content associated with post-vagotomy diarrhoea, but that these measurements are markedly affected by the completeness of va...
متن کاملClinical and laboratory study of postvagotomy diarrhoea.
Thirty-two patients with diarrhoea, on average four years following truncal vagotomy and drainage, were studied. A comparison was made with 24 patients without postvagotomy diarrhoea.

متن کاملHighly selective vagotomy plus dilatation of the stenosis compared with truncal vagotomy and drainage in the treatment of pyloric stenosis secondary to duodenal ulceration.
Twenty-three consecutive patients with duodenal ulceration complicated by pyloric stenosis who came under the care of one surgeon were treated by highly selective vagotomy (HSV) combined with digital dilatation of the stenosis through a gastrotomy. No form of drainage procedure was used. Thus the antral "mill" and the pyloric sphineter were left intact. Since the stenosis is usually distal to ...
