  • Title: [Enteropexy (the Reymond procedure) in the treatment of small-intestine obstruction. The experience of 133 cases].
    Author: Gullino D, Cardino L, Giordano O, Gullino E.
    Journal: J Chir (Paris); 1986; 123(6-7):442-3. PubMed ID: 3533970.
    Abstract:
    The indication for a pexis operation is entirely dependent on the condition of the intestinal peritoneum. If detachment of peritoneum is absent or very superficial then pexis is not indicated (prophylactic pexis). If, however, multiple regions of peritoneal detachment extending to the subperitoneal layer exist then curative pexis is justified, and must extend to the whole or almost the whole of the small intestine, and be performed using absorbable suture thread.
