Overview

In the 20th century, in the absence of the true cause of peptic ulcer, patients faced a future of terrible suffering or death and clinicians were desperate to save them. In Rockhampton Queensland, the person who took on this heroic duty was the local surgeon, Dr. Wylie Gibbons. - Barry Marshall, Nobel Laureate in Medicine 2005. This book chronicles the development by a local surgeon in a regional centre in Australia in the 1960s of the technique of gastric hypothermia - gastric cooling via a balloon inserted into the stomach, as a safer alternative to surgery for patients with massive upper gastrointestinal bleeding. The physiological effects of gastric hypothermia are documented and illustrated clinical outcomes in 29 patients are provided.
