Evaluation of a Satisfactory Operation for Ulcer

Conclusions The extensive gastric resection (operations III and IVA) offer the best protection against the development of jejunal ulcer. No jejunal ulcer developed and all dogs survived the injection period. Gastrojejunostomy, the small gastric resection and the Schmilinsky operation offer no protection. All animals developed jejunal ulcer with employment of the histamine-bees-wax technique. The small gastric resection and the antral exclusion operations would suggest that the Edkins′ “gastrin” hypothesis is invalid.
