The aim of this study was to determine whether microsurgical anastomosis can restore propagation of jejunal pacesetter potentials
(PPs) across a site of canine jejunal transection and preserve motility and transit in bowel distal to the transection. A
complete jejunal transection with exact microsurgical anastomosis was performed in five dogs, while five dogs with intact
jejunum and five dogs with complete transection and end-to-end conventional macrosurgical anastomosis were used as controls.
Long-term recording electrodes and intraluminal, open-tipped pressure catheters were implanted in all dogs. The mean frequency
of PPs decreased distal to the transection in both groups of transected dogs. However, aborad propagation of PPs across the
anastomosis occurred episodically by 3 months in each dog that had a microsurgical anastomosis, but never occurred in any
dog with a conventional macroanastomosis. Moreover, the motility and transit in bowel distal to the transection were unaltered
in the dogs with a microsurgical anastomosis, whereas they decreased in the dogs with a macroanastomosis. The conclusion was
that microsurgical anastomosis of transected canine jejunum restored episodic propagation of PPs across the anastomosis, and
preserved motility and maintained transit in bowel distal to the anastomosis. The conventional macroanastomosis did none of
these.

A patient in whom the laparoscopic procedure for intestinal endometriosis with small bowel obstruction was effective is reported. A 35‐year‐old woman who had complained of a stomach ache during menstruation had been followed up for 1 year at another hospital. She presented at Hiroshima Funairi Hospital with upper abdominal pain, and was admitted with suspected small bowel obstruction as a result of plain abdominal X‐ray showing abnormal intestine gas. Laparoscopic observation revealed marked adhesion and stenosis of the distal ileum, which were responsible for the obstruction. Mini‐laparotomy was selected and ilectomy and anastomosis were performed under laparoscopic‐assisted procedure. Histologically, endometriosis was confirmed and resection of the involved segment yielded excellent results, and the patient was discharged. This was an extremely rare case of intestinal obstructive involvement by endometriosis and we briefly discuss here the effectiveness of laparoscopic‐assisted operation.

Crypt fission is a physiologic mechanism of crypt reproduction. It increases in pathophysiologic situations where intestinal
regeneration is required (e.g., radiation injury). Polyamine metabolism is important in the regulation of intestinal growth
and recovery from injury in response to a variety of stimuli. Our aim was to determine whether inhibition of polyamine synthesis
by difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) influenced crypt fission. Forty-eight rabbits underwent patch enteroplasty in the terminal
ileum. One group served as a control group and the other took 2 % DFMO orally. Animals (n = 6) from each group were killed
at 7, 14, 21, and 28 days. Normal ileum adjacent to the enteroplasty was studied. Crypt dissection was performed 2 hours after
vincristine was administered intravenously to determine crypt cell production rate, crypt depth, and proportion of bifurcating
crypts (fission). DFMO administration decreased crypt fission (4 ±2% vs. 11 ± 2% and 13 ±1% vs. 34 ±4% at 7 and 14 days) compared to control animals. There was a corresponding increase in crypt depth at
14 and 21 days. Crypt cell production rate was similar in both groups and did not change with time. Mucosal ornithine decarboxylase
activity (11.9 ±2.2 vs. 1.2 ± 0.3 specific activity at 21 days; P <0.05)and polyamine content (323 ±32 vs. 17±8 and 382 ±89
vs. 160 ±47 pmol/mg at 14 and 21 days, control vs. DFMO; P <0.05) were significantly lower in the DFMO group. The following conclusions were drawn: (1) DFMO administration inhibits
crypt fission in stimulated intestinal epithelium; (2) this effect correlates temporally with reduced polyamine production;
and (3) reduced crypt fission is another potential mechanism of inhibition of intestinal growth by altered polyamine metabolism.

To observe the recovery of normal intestinal movement and the effects of peristalsis-promoting agents in patients with intestinal obstruction, an ileus monitoring system using the balloon method was simultaneously compared with that using the infusion method in 24 patients. To initiate the balloon ileus monitoring system, measurement was started at a setting of 0 after connecting a transducer to the balloon inflation channel of a decompression tube. The recording sensitivity was 20 mmHg/cm, and the speed of recording was 5 mm/min. The sensitivity of the infusion method was found to be 0.70±0.17 times that of the balloon method, and therefore the balloon method was considered to be more accurate. The findings of this study show how useful this ileus monitoring system is for observing the motility of intestinal obstruction. 相似文献
Purpose: To investigate the potential protective effects of Proanthocyanidins(PAs) on intestinal motility disturbance following intestinal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). Materials and Methods: Male rats were divided into four groups: Sham, I/R, I/R+PA100 and I/R+PA200. Sham group underwent laparotomy without ligation, the others were subjected to intestinal ischemia for 1 h and reperfusion 4 h. Rats in the I/R+PA100 group received PAs (100 mg/kg/d) for 5 days prior to I/R, while rats in the I/R+PA200 group received PAs (200 mg/kg/d). After reperfusion, using an electrophysiology instrument measured ileal slow wave. Ileal specimens were obtained to determine contractility, tissue levels of Bax, Bcl-2, and Caspase-3 and evaluate histopathological changes. In addition, blood sample was obtained to determine serum superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels. Results: Intestinal I/R caused severe histopathological injury including mucosal erosions, inflammatory cell infiltration, necrosis, and hemorrhage. Both PAs treatment decreased mucosal pathological impairment in comparison with the I/R group (p < .05) in light microscopic evaluations. In both PAs-treated groups, Bax and Caspase-3 expression were decreased compared to I/R group, while the Bcl-2 expression increased (p < .05), which was similarly the case for serum SOD activity demonstrated significant enhance (p < .05) and decline in MDA levels in comparison with I/R group (both p < .05). Moreover, PAs treatment was more efficient in attenuating serum MDA levels of intestinal I/R (both p < .05). And the contractile amplitude and frequency of slow wave in I/R+PA100 and I/R+PA200 groups were higher than I/R group (both p < .05). Conclusions: PAs improve intestinal motility disturbance following intestinal I/R by alleviating oxidative stress and apoptosis. 相似文献
