  • Title: [Contribution of artificial feeding to the prevention of fistulae, anastomotic breakdowns, and eviscerations. Applications to diffuse postoperative peritonitis in eight cases (author's transl)].

    Abstract:
    Based on the study of 8 cases diffuse post-operative peritonitis, the authors demonstrate in an exemplary manner the benefit derived through artificial nutritive support which permits, in certain well-defined cases, one-step digestive sutures and allows high-quality anastomotic and parietal healing. This new therapeutic attitude should not be generalized; it remains as yet very special, requiring specific metabolic safety measures. Only surgical teams in total control of the metabolic and nutritive problems accompanying heavy visceral surgery are in a position to apply this new concept.
