AbstractIn conscious fullgrown minipigs simple SPV alone, SPV and pyloric stenosis and SPV and pyloroplasty were performed. After a liquid test meal the motoric and secretory function of the stomach were examined simultaneously by a modified method of intestinal perfusion and aspiration. After simple SPV initially a marked decrease of gastric volume and normal emptying into the duodenum were found. With additional pyloric stenosis no significant change was found. The pyloroplasty lead to an increase of gastric volume and delayed emptying. The acid secretion after feeding reduced by SPV was not changed significantly neither by pyloroplasty nor by pyloric stenosis. The baseline values of serum gastrin were elevated after SPV as well as after SPV in combination with pyloric stenosis or pyloroplasty. After food stimulation there was a delayed increase of gastrin after SPV which differed from that after SPV with pyloric stenosis or pyloroplasty only during the first hour. These results show that after SPV no further improvement of the motoric and secretory function can be achieved by an additional pyloroplasty. Furthermore these findings permit the conclusion that even after SPV with additional artificial pyloric stenosis no delayed gastric emptying occurs and that there is no negative effect postoperatively on the acid secretion and gastrin production.
