Having lost two patients after gastric resection from septic peritonitis, the author believes that the best protection against bacteria brought with food is acidic gastric juice. Therefore, he has recently taken it as a rule to give hydrochloric acid to patients before and after gastric resection and, in addition, to wash their stomachs with physiological solution of table salt.
