Endoscopic reduction of gastric secretion was used in the treatment of 38 patients with peptic ulcer disease with frequent or continuously relapsing type of course. All of them had been previously treated in a therapeutic hospital more than once, but with only temporary improvement. The age of the patients (35 male, 3 female) ranged from 22 to 55 years, mean age - 36 years. The average duration of the disease was 8.31.5 years. The nature of the ulcerous process was clarified endoscopically and radiologically; benign nature of the disease was verified by the results and morphological study of biopsy specimens. Bulbar ulcers were found in 34 patients, in 4 patients - pylorobulbar ulcers; 11 patients had multiple, "kissing" onion ulcers. The area of the ulcerous defects ranged from 0.15 to 1.3 cm2 (0.34 0.03 cm2). Five patients had recurrence of sutured perforated ulcers, 3 patients had a history of bleeding.
