[Free perforation of stomach and duodenum (author's transl)]. 1976

L Schroeder, and N Hantschmann

206 perforations of stomach or duodenal ulcers were treated by primary resection or simple suture between 1963 and 1972. The lethality of these two methods of treatment was compared with the age of the patients, the duration of symptoms, the length of time between perforation and surgery, and the localization of the perforated ulcer. Our analysis showed that, as a rule, primary resection is preferable, except in old age.
