RESUMO
An original treatment of caustic rectal stenosis due to abuse of analgesic suppositories is presented. The stenosis had been excluded by distal colostomy during 2 years before reconstruction of the circuit was attempted. Anatomically, the stenosis appeared as a complete diaphragm which could be recanalized by an EEA stapler for circular anastomosis, installed in two sites: endoluminal from the colostomy and perineal. After a 2-year follow-up, the anatomical and functional results are satisfactory.

One hundred and twenty seven patients had a follow-up of more than 4 years after parietal cell vagotomy for duodenal, pyloric or prepyloric ulcer. The recurrence rate is 15.8% (20 on 127). Eighteen patients who have recurred, had a follow-up of 2 years or more after treatment of the recurrent disease. Ten patients had a early recurrence (within 2 years); eight had a late one (more than 2 years). One patient had been operated as an emergency for perforation. Seventeen patients had first received a medical treatment. This treatment was sufficient for 10 out of 17. Seven patients were reoperated (3 partial gastrectomy), 4 partial gastrotomy associated with truncal vagotomy. Seven out of the 10 early recurrences was reoperated and only one of the 8 late recurrences was reoperated. The early recurrences seem to be more serious that the late ones. Medical treatment is always prescribed as first line therapy and a partial gastrectomy alone or with vagotomy is necessary in unsuccessful cases.
