The correct answer is A

Unlike other forms of vagotomy, this version only disables the nerve fibers which control acid-secreting glands, while leaving other vagus nerve functions undisturbed.

Highly selective vagotomy (HSV), also referrred to as parietal cell vagotomy or proximal gastric vagotomy, divides only the vagus nerves supplying the proximal two-thirds of stomach.
