Two surgical models of intestinal transplantation in the rat are described. One is the implantation of fetal and newborn intestine as free grafts into the omentum of adult recipients, the other the adult intestine transplantation as an accessory graft using vascular anastomoses. A hundred and sixtee
Unlike other solid organ transplants, intestinal transplantation (IT) remains a highly experimental procedure. Rejection, sepsis, and graft-versus-host disease have been the major barriers to successful IT in humans. These problems can be studied in the rat model, but this requires a reliable surgic
Small-bowel transplantation (SBT) using an nonsuture cuff technique was carried out on 137 rats. Preparation of the donor graft was carried out according to conventional procedures. Graft perfusion was done at a fixed pressure of 35 cm water. The left renal vessels of the recipient were dissected, t
## Abstract Compared with other rat transplant models, small bowel transplantation (SBT) is associated with higher peritransplant morbidity and mortality. We describe a twoβstage technique of SBT in the rat that minimizes perioperative complications and also allows immediate restoration of intestin
