A stapling device has been used to disconnect the lesser curve of the stomach during highly selective vagotomy in a consecutive series of ten patients.

Postoperative recovery was uneventful in all patients, and in the subsequent follow-up period of 7-15 months, no problems relating to the technique were encountered.
