Abstract
Long-tube bowel splinting at operation, with use of a gastrostomy for introduction of the tube, has many advantages in varying conditions. Results are evaluated in 79 patients undergoing operations over a 10-yr period for first or recurrent intestinal adhesive obstruction, complicated Crohn''s disease, peritonitis, ventral hernia repair, ileostomy, radiation enteritis, etc. Technique and complications are reviewed. Advantages of a recently-developed bi-lumen tube over a single-lumen tube are discussed.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
