Abstract:
The authors studied the results of surgical treatment of 97 patients with complicated form of the decompensated stage of chronic colonic stasis. The choice of the method and volume of the operation is determined by the location and spread of the stasis in the colon. Histological examination of material removed during the operation revealed predominantly dystrophic changes of the ganglionic cells of the musculo-intestinal plexus and hypertrophy and sclerosis of the muscular coat of the colon. The operation produced a good and satisfactory effect in 83.4% of patients.
