Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to study the possible morphological and functional abnormalities of the small intestine in patients undergoing antrectomy and vagotomy for duodenal ulcer. The relevant literature is scarce and this has led us to undertake a comprehensive study in patients admitted to the Gastroenterology Service of the Hospital Obrero de Lima . Studies on intestinal biopsy in ulcer patients who have been subjected to different types of operation : gastrectomy, vagotomy and pyloroplasty , but none in patients with antrectomy and truncal vagotomy . It is this circumstance which gives originality to this work, so the study of Ia digestive capacity of the patient and the other with a remote monitoring post-operative data is added . We do not intend to judge the advantages and disadvantages of certain types of operation; We have just finalized the search for intestinal disorders . For this purpose we have studied 15 patients of the Hospital Obrero de Lima , with the sponsorship of the School of Medicine and the San Fernando Hospital address.
