“…The raw areas are folded away so that mucosal continuity is restored. Mucosal excision is accomplished through a gastroduodenotomy which is then closed after the fashion of a Heineke-Mikulicz pyloroplasty (Kirk, 1965(Kirk, , 1966Kirk and Sussman, 1972).…”

The clinical results of gastric mucosal resection are reported after a 1-10-year follow-up in which 76 per cent of patients were followed up for more than 5 years. There were 3 postopertive deaths in 152 patients. Mucosal antrectomy with vagotomy for duodenal ulcer in 96 patients, and for recurrent ulcer in 9 patients, has not been followed by a single recurrence. Gastric mucosal resection alone for the treatment of gastric ulcer in 21 patients resulted in 1 recurrence. Although vagotomy combined with resection is currently out of fashion for the initial treatment of duodenal ulcer in Britain, mucosal gastric resection has technical advantages in combination with vagotomy for the cure of recurrent ulcers following duodenal ulcer surgery.
