Abstract
Evaluation of swallowing function after gastric operation was made by patients' complain, barium swallowing time and endoscopic internal mesurement of anastomosis. Patients' complain was signifcantly higher in the total gastrectomy group than in the distal gastrectomy group. Barium swallowing time was also signifcantly slower in the total gastrectomy group than in the distal gastrectomy group. There was 5% of anastmotic stricture in the total gastrectomy group. These findings indicate that total gastrectomy was more destractive for cardioesophageal function than the distal gastrectomy.
