Abstract:
Objective An ideal small bowel transplantation model is the prerequisite and guarantee of small bowel transplan-tation-related researches.The aim of this study is to establish a pig model of orthotopic segmental small bowel transplantation by modifi-cation of blood vessel reconstruction and surgical techniques. Methods Twenty healthy pigs were equally assigned as donors and re-cipients.The superior mesenteric vessels were freed and the distal ileum harvested as grafts.After irrigation and preservation, the small bowel was transplanted by end-to-end anastomosis of the superior mesenteric arteries and veins, and then the small bowel was re-constructed simultaneously to restore intestinal continuity, with the proximal part of the graft brought out as a stoma for the purpose of graft monitoring. Results Transplantation was successfully performed in 9 of the 10 cases, with a success rate of 90%.The donor operations averaged 100 min, recipient operations 172 min, warm ischemia 1.3 min, cold ischemia 96 min, and vascular anastomosis 27.6 min.No postoperative anastomosis fistula occurred in any of the cases. Conclusion The pig model of orthotopic segmental small bowel transplantation is ideal for small bowel transplantation-related researches.
