AB  - Total  gastrectomy  may  be  indicated  in  treating  extensive  stomach  malignancies.  This  radical  procedure  is  not  performed  when  carcinoma  with  distant  metastasis  to  the  liver  or  pouch  of  Douglas  or  seeding  throughout  the  peritoneal  cavity  is  present.  It  may  be  performed  in  association  with  the  extirpation  of  adjacent  organs  including  the  spleen,  body  and  tail  of  the  pancreas,  or  a  portion  of  the  transverse  colon.  It  is  also  the  procedure  of  choice  in  controlling  the  intractable  ulcer  diathesis  associated  with  non-beta  islet  cell  tumors  of  the  pancreas  when  pancreatic  tumor  or  metastases  remain  that  cannot  be  controlled  medically.
