[Diagnosis, pathophysiology and surgical treatment of duodenogastric reflux in peptic ulcer].

Results of the examination of 142 patients with ulcer disease were studied. The incidence of DGR was found to be 48% in gastric ulcer and 44% in duodenal ulcer. The unfavorable influence on the gastric mucosa was greater under conditions of the acidic intragastric medium. Special attention to causes of DGR in the surgical treatment of the ulcer disease and the use of areflux anastomoses can improve results of the surgical treatment of such patients.
