    Abstract:
    The authors sustain the methods used in the Childs-Phillips operation that they have performed in 34 patients. Details are given in relation with the diagnosis and the auxilliary interventions that have been requested. The authors stress the exclusive use of No. 5 of nylon or thread. Postoperative death-rate (11,5%) was due only to coexisting affections, the necropsies revealing intact enteroplicatures. The postoperative abdominal discomfort was detected in 8 patients over a duration of 1--2 years after surgery. Repeated radiologic controls have been carried out that showed in 8 patients the disappearance of aspects typical for disturbances following enteroplicature. The radiologic investigations have been performed at variable intervals (between 3 months and 2 years after surgery).
