Notes:
Summary Results of the Billroth I operation in duodenal ulcer have been too variable to warrant our complete confidence in the operation. This is academic, since the combined operation (hemigastrectomy plus vagotomy plus gastroduodenostomy) appears to be far superior to eitherad modum Billroth I or II gastric resections for this disease entity. The treatment of benign gastric ulcer by Billroth I distal gastrectomy (usually, antrectomy is sufficient) is generally recognized as exceptionally satisfactory. The Billroth I resection for gastric carcinoma has its advocates and detractors; we have no set convictions concerning this problem. Finally, we believe that there is merit in the conversion of a Billroth II to I anastomosis for the treatment of severe dumping.
