Abstract

In the 60–70s of the last century, the main method of surgical treatment of duodenal ulcers was gastric resection. At the same time, research began on the use of vagotomy in the treatment of ulcers of the 12 duodenum. Anatoly Alekseevich Kurygin became one of the pioneers of this direction in our country. From 1964 to 1974, he managed to collect clinical material from 450 patients who underwent vagotomy and pyloroplasty. It was the largest clinical material at that time. It has been proven that vagotomy with pyloroplasty is not inferior in effectiveness to the treatment of chronic duodenal ulcers of gastric resection, however, in terms of the number of postoperative complications and mortality, it is much safer than resection. Thanks to the work of A.A. Kurygin, this method has found wide application in clinical practice, and Anatoly Alekseevich was awarded the State Prize in the field of science and technology.

Keywords: gastric resection, vagotomy, pyloroplasty, chronic duodenal ulcer.
