    Abstract:
    An experimental study on 15 piglets allowed defining the technical procedure and controlling the anatomical and functional results of various modes of restoration of the ileocolic tract after resection with a terminolateral tubing including and intracolic ileal sleeve. Coloileal fixation was ensured only by a few seromuscular sutures and adhesion with "Tissucol". The clinical application of this procedure was very satisfactory for 9 recent right colectomies, thus confirming the results previously observed for 33 ileal perforations in Africa. The ileocolic tubing technique is easy, reliable, morbidity-free, and causes no leakage of intestinal fluid, no intestinal ischemia and no stenosis. As it prevents coloileal reflux, this assembly may prevent ileitis after right colectomy. Its valvular effect also contributes in the mechanical regulation of transit. The assembly produces a system that can be compared to the ileocecal valve.
