  • Title: Chronic fistulation and cannulation of the rabbit caecum.
    Author: Carman RJ, Waynforth HB.
    Journal: Lab Anim; 1984 Jul; 18(3):258-60. PubMed ID: 6748601.
    Abstract:
    A PTFE cannula was introduced into the rabbit abdomen through the right flank. A purse string suture was used to fix a small plastic flange within the caecum. A larger flange was sutured under the skin to fix the cannula. Caecal contents could be collected from the chronic fistula via a threaded stainless steel cap on the cannula. Animals tolerated the fistulation well and sepsis was never seen.
