[Reconstructive treatment of patients after radical surgery of gastric cancer]

Laktionova AI, Gerasimenko VN, Kim Chun Von .

Reconstructive treatment was given to patients radically operated on for gastric cancer in the USSR (147) and Korean People's Democratic Republic (8). At the All-Union Center for Oncology Research of the USSR Academy of Medical Sciences, complex reconstructive treatment for postresection disorders included substitution and correction whereas at the Research Institute of Oncology of Pyongyang, traditional Korean herb decoctions were administered. In patients radically operated on for gastric cancer, postresection disorders were ameliorated or subsided altogether after treatment.
