Treatment of life-threatening bleeding from peptic ulcers. Ramstedt (Zentr. f. Chir., 1924)

Since gastric ulcer bleeding is mostly stopped by conservative treatment, it is necessary to resort to surgery relatively rarely and always in extremely weakened patients. Therefore it is desirable here not to use such complicated methods as excision of the ulcer, banding it after the stomach incision, or resection of the stomach itself, but to find a simpler and easier method, which, at the same time, would quickly and correctly lead to the goal.
