[Clinical anatomy of the upper part of the abdominal cavity in reoperations on the stomach after organ-sparing surgery].

Based upon intraoperative observations and analysis of anatomo-surgical findings in 50 patients subjected to reoperations after selective proximal vagotomy the authors have established 3 stages of anatomical alterations of organs of the upper part of the abdominal cavity. Performing antrumectomy is thought to be possible as reoperation in the first stage and in the less degree in the second stage. Extensive resection is indicated to patients with the third stage of the alterations.
