Y1 - 2013 N1 - T2 - Maingot's Abdominal Operations, 12e AB - The surgical management of benign gastric disorders has evolved significantly over the past 30 years. Elective surgery for ulcer disease has largely been abandoned in favor of medical management with surgery being utilized mainly for complications after failed medical treatment. Most elective (and some emergent) gastric procedures can now be performed with laparoscopy if local expertise is available, augmented by either radiologic (mainly via intra-operative ultrasound) or endoscopic guidance for more accurate localization. These techniques can help the surgeon perform a more targeted resection because wide margins are not necessary.
