Analyzing the patient material of 506 patients with gastric resection, authors deal with the early complication of resection, its diagnosis and treatment. They review the complications, their frequency and mortality in their own material. After operations made for tumour, complications occurred more frequently than after interventions because of ulcer. Total mortality was 10.2%. In order to reduce mortality they call attention to the possible prevention of complications and their careful management.

A comparative study was conducted, including patients who underwent PD with a-RHA or with normal RHA anatomy. The primary endpoints were R1 resection in all margins (pancreatic, anterior, posterior, superior mesenteric artery, and portal groove), overall survival (OS), and disease-free survival (DFS).
