[Effects of selective proximal vagotomy on gastrin, glucagon and insulin contents in blood of patients with duodenal ulcer].

Content of gastrin, glucagon and insulin in the blood of 49 patients with a duodenal ulcer was similar to that in control group patients. Significant increase in gastrin and glucagon levels, decrease in insulin content was noted 14-15 days after the performance of selective proximal vagotomy. At the late period, concentration of the hormones studied was within the limits of physiologic levels.
