The patients in group EEN were given enteral nutrition after operation, and the patients in group N-EEN were given total parenteral nutrition support. The postoperative complications were recorded. The serum albumin, prealbumin and transferrin were measured on postoperative day 1, 5 and 9. The serum level of alanine aminotransferase(ALT), bilirubin, blood urea nitrogen(BUN), creatinine, glucose, cholesteroland triglyceridewere monitored. Results: The complications occurred in 21patients. 5 of these patients belonged to EEN group and the other belonged to N-EEN group. In EEN group, the serum albumin, prealbumin and transferrin were significantly higher than in N-EEN group on postoperative day 9 (P
