Abstract:
Objectives:To investigate the effect of early EN on mucosal structure and absorption function of allograft after living-related small bowel transplantation. Methods:Early enteral nutrition was used.The image analysis,D-xylose absorbtion test and blood culture were used to measure the villus height and area,D-xylose absorption and bacterial translocation in blood. Results:The morphometric examination showed that villus height and villus area were decreased on the 7th postoperative day,began to increase on the 12th day after transplantation and had been the 80% of normal level.The percentage of D-xylose absorption was gradually increased and reached the normal level on the postoperative 38th day.Postoperative blood cultures were always negative. Conclusions:Early EN support can improve the mucosal structure and absorption function of small bowel allograft after living-related small bowel transplantation.
