VARY operations were performed at the authors' hospital on 25 patients for duodenal ulcer and on two patients for gastric ulcer, between May 1984 and January 1987. A postoperative complication was recorded from one patient only, that is bleeding of the anastomosis on the first postoperative day. All patients underwent follow-up X-ray, one month after surgery. Stomach voiding was found to be delayed in 55.6 per cent of all cases. Normally functioning anastomosis and intact gastric mucosa were gastroscopically recorded from all patients. Bile reflux did not occur at all. Slight diarrhoea was found in 18.5 per cent of the patients, while 14.8 per cent reported minimal epigastric dullness. Hence, all 27 patients were rated Visick I.
