The effects of subtotal-gastrectomy (gastrectomy) on the spontaneous motility and caerulein-induced relaxation of the sphincter of Oddi (SO) were investigated in the dog. The spontaneous motility and the response to caerulein of the SO were recorded using perfusion method. The basal perfusion pressure (5.
