Abstract

The theoretical substantiation of pyloroplasty as a therapeutic method in adults is based on the provisions, which are still very problematic today. Russian authors (Breitsev, Grekov et al.), who first proposed this operation in adults, set indications for this kind of intervention very broadly and considered it indicated not only for pylorospasm without visible ulcer, but also for ulcers of the small curvature and for ulcers of the 12th bowel. At the same time these authors proceeded from the position that pylorospasm is the central point in the pathogenesis and course of ulcers and they considered its elimination to be very important in the operative treatment of ulcers.
