Achalasia-like disturbance of oesophageal motility following truncal vagotomy and antrectomy.

چکیده
Transient dysphagia has been described following truncal and selective vagotomy for peptic ulceration. There are considered to be 3 main aetiologies, namely haematoma, oesophagitis and lower oesophageal sphincter spasm. In the latter instance barium swallow may show the changes of achalasia, but previous reports have described either normal oesophageal manometry, or lower oesophageal sphincter spasm only. The oesophageal manometry in this patient was unique in its apparent resemblance to true achalasia.

Intragastric N-nitrosation is unlikely to be responsible for gastric carcinoma developing after operations for duodenal ulcer.
Three groups of patients studied after operations which had cured their duodenal ulcer were compared with a control group (no operation, n = 8). The surgical procedures included: proximal gastric vagotomy (n = 7), truncal vagotomy and pyloroplasty (n = 7), truncal vagotomy and antrectomy (n = 8). Samples of gastric juice were aspirated half hourly or hourly over 24 hours for measurement of pH, ...
متن کاملAlcohol tolerance after proximal gastric vagotomy.
Alcohol tolerance has been studied in 10 patients after proximal gastric vagotomy and six patients after truncal vagotomy and antrectomy. No difference in alcohol tolerance was found before and after proximal gastric vagotomy, while an increased rate of absorption with higher blood levels of alcohol were found after truncal vagotomy and antrectomy.
متن کاملFive- to eight-year results of truncal vagotomy and pyloroplasty for duodenal ulcer.
From January 1963 to December 1965 inclusive 192 men with duodenal ulcer were treated by elective truncal vagotomy and pyloroplasty with one death. Ten subsequent deaths were due to causes unrelated to the ulcer or operation, and 17 patients became untraceable. The remaining 164 patients have been followed up for five to eight years. The late results have been compared with those obtained in a ...
متن کاملIrradiation-induced motor disorder of the oesophagus.
This case report describes the late development of an achalasia-like disturbance of oesophageal motility following irradiation to the neck for a pharyngeal lymphosarcoma. The radiological, manometric and endoscopic findings are recorded as well as laboratory investigations showing evidence of complete vagal denervation.
متن کاملGastric acid secretion and risk of recurrence of duodenal ulcer within six to eight years after truncal vagotomy and drainage.
The value of insulin and augmented histamine tests in predicting recurrence of duodenal ulcer within six to eight years after truncal vagotomy and drainage was assessed in a series of 500 consecutively and electively operated patients. Criteria of recurrence were established by a discriminative analysis of gastric acid secretion parameters. Recurrence was predicted with a probability of about 7...
