Abstract |
The article studies the possibilities of radionuclide method in disclosing the basic postgastroresectional syndromes: dumping syndrome, duodenogastric reflux and afferent loop syndrome. After resection of stomach 92 patients were examined throughout a period from 1 to 10 years. During dynamic scintigraphy of liver characteristic changes were disclosed in biliary secretory system which could have diagnostic significance. This method gives the possibility to determine the frequency, duration and volume of duodenogastric reflux. It was found out that Roux's [correction of Rue's] method of resection have resulted in minimal number of duodenogastric refluxes. Dynamic scintigraphy of stomach is useful for studying evacuative function of the resected stomach and for afferent loop syndrome diagnosis, which sometimes is more informative than a wide-spread barium sulfate roentgenological method.
