“…This point had already been observed in Brigham's patient [6]. The first successful abdominal cardiectomy was done by Voelcker in 1908 [6] and the first one-stage transthoracic cardiectomy by Brunn in 1916 [3]. This operation did not become routine until the 1940s.…”

“…Kocher in 1891 closed the gastric stump and performed an anastomosis of the duodenum and the posterior wall of the stomach. In 1911 Schoemaker obliterated the lesser curvature and anastomosed the duodenum to the greater curvature [6]. W. Mayo created an end-to-end anastomosis "by placing two stitches on the gastric side to one on the duodenal side" [9].…”

“…Lawrence, Hunt, Paulino, and others made reservoirs from a Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy. State and Lee (1951) interposed transverse and right colon, respectively; Longmire (1952) interposed jejunum between the esophagus and the duodenum [6]. The need for and the value of these reservoirs has not been proved.…”

“…A Braun enteroenterostomy between the two loops usually takes care of the problem once it occurs and is simpler than conversion to a Billroth I, another alternative. An advantage of the retrocolic anastomosis is a short ("no loop") afferent loop, which avoids regurgitant vomiting, as first pointed out by Czerny and Petersen in 1900 and later adopted by von Mikulicz, W. Mayo, Moynihan, and others [6]. Bile gastritis is another, though rare, complication.…”

The development of gastric surgery is one of the most fascinating chapters in surgical history. The first operations on the stomach were done during the second half of the nineteenth century; at first they were minor procedures but then gradually became more daring, major procedures-albeit with considerable mortality. The work of Theodor Billroth and his pupils ushered in the era of major resectional therapy, first for cancer and later also for ulcer disease. Complications due to the lack of understanding gastric physiology plagued the early days of ulcer surgery, and a variety of modifications tried to remedy these problems. Although the role of the vagus was known through Pavlov's studies, its practical application had to wait until well into the twentieth century. For several decades, resection and vagotomy, separately or combined, were practiced until more sophisticated types of vagotomy began to dominate and replace resection in the surgical treatment of ulcer disease. Resection remained the treatment for cancer. We thus see over a period of 100 years, owing to the increased understanding of physiologic factors, a gradual shift from major resections toward smaller, better directed procedures. The pioneering work of Billroth and his generation, however, must not be forgotten.

“…Jaboulay described a side-to-side gastroduodenostomy (Fig. 3), which functionally bypasses the stenotic or obstructing pylorus, in 1892 [27]. This was later also described by von Mikulicz in 1898 [28].…”
