Abstract A review has been made of our experience in 1,127 patients who have undergone vagotomy and antrectomy for the complications of duodenal ulcer. The follow-up study has extended from less than one to more than fifteen years. The over-all results have been quite satisfactory with 93 per cent of the patients having had an excellent or good result following operation. The incidence of recurrent ulcer remains very low, only 0.6 per cent. The operative mortality of 2.7 per cent in the series is in keeping with that of other resports. Nutritional difficulties, weight loss, diarrhea and anemia have not been major problems. The operation of complete abdominal vagotomy and excision of the gastric antrum successfully controls the ulcer diathesis; and in our opinion, is the most satisfactory surgical procedure for the treatment of duodenal ulcer.
