Abstract
Though the avg. gastric secretory rate is lower in gastric ulcer than it is in duodenal ulcer, acid secretion is nevertheless present in all patients with peptic ulcer. If achlorhydria develops spontaneously, as occurred in 2 patients, or is produced surgically, as frequently occurs following subtotal gastrectomy, or is produced by x-raying the portions of the stomach secreting acid, peptic ulcers invariably heal, and do not recur provided the achlorhydria persists.Keywords
