Abstract
An easy, quick and practical way to determine the magnitude of gastric resection during operation consists of determining the length of the lesser and greater curvatures with a Nélaton's catheter. According to the extent of gastrectomy, different denominations should be used. If a precise antrectomy is desired, the physiologic antrum-corpus border should be determined.Mesh:
