Overview

Surgery for peptic ulcer is indicated for bleeding and perforated peptic ulcer. Bleeding ulcers are usually treated first with endoscopic therapy but if they bleed after endoscopic therapy, surgery is done to control bleeding. Perforated peptic ulcer is an emergency, immediate laparoscopic closure of ulcer is required.

Indications

Surgical Options

Bleeding peptic ulcer

The primary goal of a bleeding peptic ulcer is hemorrhage control. The preferred operative approach to a peptic ulcer depends on the location of the ulcer, and for this, it is important for the surgeon to be present during upper GI endoscopy to have precise information on the location of the ulcer. It is discussed under two subtypes:

Different surgical treatment options for refractory or complicated bleeding peptic ulcer disease are:

  • Vagotomy and pyloroplasty
  • Vagotomy and antrectomy with gastroduodenal reconstruction (Billroth I)
  • Gastrojejunal reconstruction (Billroth II)
  • Highly selective vagotomy

Bleeding gastric ulcers

Bleeding gastric ulcers are treated according to the location of ulcers. They are generally best treated by excision of the ulcer and repair of the resulting gastric defect. Excision or biopsy of the ulcer is important, as 4–5% of benign-appearing ulcers are actually malignant ulcers.[1][2]

  • Ulcers along the greater curvature and lesser curvature of the stomach, antrum or body of the stomach are treated by:
    • Wedge excision of the ulcer and closure of the defect
  • Distal gastric ulcers along the lesser curvature in the area of the incisura angularis are treated by:
    • A distal gastrectomy with either a Billroth I or Billroth II reconstruction
  • Proximal gastric ulcer near the gastroesophageal (GE) junction are treated by:
    • Csendes procedure, a distal gastrectomy with the tongue-shaped extension of the lesser curve resection margin to include the ulcer
    • Further Roux-en-Y esophagogastrojenjunostomy is done to prevent defects of stomach
