✦ Synopsis

Abstract

The duration of postoperative ileus and changes in contractile frequency of circular muscle were recorded in the colon of monkeys before and after primary resection for distal large bowel obstruction. Obstruction was induced gradually by an implanted device. Resection and primary anastomosis resulted in reduced contractile frequency (postoperative ileus) lasting less than 48 h, significantly shorter than the period of ileus after a control laparotomy.

Abstract The effect of chronic progressive distal large bowel obstruction on colonic motility was studied in six mini-pigs. Motility was detected in vivo during the development of obstruction with chronically implanted Ag/AgCl electrodes using an impedance technique. When the obstruction was complet
