Abstract
- Intubation of the entire obstructed small bowel at surgery has been accomplished in forty-four of forty-seven patients with the use of a coiled spring tube as an oral enterostomy. Refinements in this apparatus have contributed to the ease of passage and safe use of this device. We believe this tube may come to serve a useful purpose in the operative management of intestinal obstruction.
