Viewed in the light of the climate of opinion, it looked for some time as though vagotomy was on its way out. A reversal of attitude began in England about the same time when Pollock (2) published a follow-up study on a large group of patients upon whom vagotomy and a complemental drainage operation had been performed. This report indicated that the results were considerably better than most observers had believed them to be....References1.
