ABSTRACT

In order to evaluate the effects of subtotal gastrectomy on the release of vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) into the blood,blood samples were taken from 10 patients after Billroth Ⅰ operation (B-Ⅰ),15 patients after Billroth Ⅱ operation (B-Ⅱ),15 patients after antroseromuscular flap preserving gastrectomy (PAFPG),and 8 normal subjects who served as the control.The blood samples were taken after the individual took hypertonic glucose solution.It was found that the VIP elevation rate was significantly higher in B-Ⅰ and B-Ⅱ group than in PAFPG group (P 0.05).In B-Ⅰ and B-Ⅱ,the VIP elevation rate was significantly higher in those cases with dumping syndrome than in those without (P
