Treatment results were studied in 117 cases of cancer of the distal part of the stomach; the patients had undergone subtotal resection. Postoperative lethality after Hofmeister-Finsterer's resection was 15.1%, after valve anastomosis-5.9% (overall lethality-8.3%). Postoperatively, patients with valve anastomosis did better and suffered surgery-related functional disorders less frequently than those treated after Hofmeister-Finsterer. 104 (97.2%) patients were followed up. Five-year survival was 45.2%; ten-year-32.2%.
