[Surgical treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease combined with duodenal ulcer].

ABSTRACT

Operations for ulcer disease of the duodenum were performed on 696 patients. In 112 (16.1%) patients there were symptoms of insufficient obturating function of the cardia, which was considered to be an indication to antireflux simultaneous operation on the cardia. The indications were worked out for the decision on operative methods in patients with ulcer disease of the duodenum in combination with gastroesophageal reflux disease. Methods of resection were used in 88 (78.5%) patients, videolaparoscopic selective proximal vagotomy with an original means of fundoplication--in 24 (21.5%) patients. Good and excellent long-term results after operation were noted in 95.5% of the patients.
