Endocrine tumour in kidney affecting small bowel structure, motility, and absorptive function.
A 44-year-old woman is described with an endocrine tumour arising in the kidney. There were associated abnormalities of small intestinal morphology, motility, and absorptive function. These abnormalities reversed on removal of the tumour. Detailed studies showed that the tumour contained, and was secreting, glucagon. It is postulated that the intestinal abnormalities may have resulted from gluc...
متن کاملAbsorptive capacity of the transplanted small bowel.
Small bowel transplantation (SBT) has been carried out in man in several cases without success, because immunologic problems were unsolved. In experimental SBT a 'two step' model was developed, which enables long term observation of immunologic phenomena. In this model the graft is in a heterotopic position to the recipient's own small bowel. After 35 days the recipient's own bowel is removed a...
متن کاملRelationship of small bowel motility to ileoanal reservoir function.
Some patients with an ileoanal reservoir have a high defecation frequency, despite a good anatomical result and the absence of pouchitis. This study aimed to determine whether variation in function is related to a difference in small bowel motility proximal to the reservoir and if small bowel motility is propagated into the reservoir. Ambulatory small bowel and reservoir motility was studied fo...
متن کامل[Intestinal motility after massive small bowel resection].
To evaluate intestinal motility after 80% massive distal small bowel resection (MSBR), we continuously monitored interdigestive and postprandial bowel motility using bipolar electrodes and/or contractile strain gage force transducers in conscious beagle dogs before, and at 0-4 weeks and 8-13 months after the surgery. Fasting duodenal migrating myoelectric (or motor) complexes (MMCs) occurred at...
متن کاملImaging approach to measuring small bowel motility.
THE ARTICLE BY CAROLINA MALAGELADA and colleagues in Barcelona entitled “Classification of functional bowel disorders by objective physiological criteria based on endoluminal image analysis” represents an important advance in the measurement of small intestinal motor functions (5). This novel approach involves novel imaging, combinations of physics and mathematics, as well as gastrointestinal p...
