AIM: The comparison of quality of life after gastrectomy. METHOD: Quality of life after gastrectomy is compared in open, prospective, randomised trial. The group with Roux-en-Y reconctruction and "J-pouch" reconstruction are compared. "J-pouch" is created using interponate jejunum loop with keeping duodenum in passage. The standardized questionnaire according to Eypasch is tool for comparison of quality life. The statistical evaluation was performed using Student t-test. RESULTS: 67 patients were analyzed altogether. The average quality of life in the group with Roux-en-Y reconstruction was 92.6 points and in the "J-pouch" group was 102.5 points. The statistical comparison of quality of life using Student t-test in the group with Roux-en-Y and "J-pouch" reconstructions confirmed significant difference (p = 0.0067). CONCLUSION: Quality of life in patient after gastrectomy represents the most important factors after surgery. The standardised questionnaries help to quantify quality of life and provide the necessary data for evidence based medicine. The statistical comparison confirmed the higher quality of life in patients with "J-pouch" reconstruction. The possibility of reconstruction providing better nutrition and higher quality of life should be considered.
