Abstract

Functional results of 48 gastrectomies are reported. The applied techniques of the construction (jejunoplicatio) are judged for the safety of the anastomosis. 29 patients (60.5%) were examined for the degree of jejunooesophageal reflux after a survival time of 1 year. Antireflux techniques of anastomosis had good functional results measured by manometry and pH-metry.
