Abstract
Objective:To investigate the vascular supply of intestinal duplication and introduce a new operative procedure to preserve a normal intestine.Methods:From 1972 to 1996,78 patients with intestinal duplication were treated surgically,and 14 underwent resection of the duplication without the adjacent intestine.Results:The duplications,by our way of division according to the blood supply,were parallel type(type Ⅰ,75.3%)and intramesenteric type(type Ⅱ,24.7%).Both types containing seperate blood supply to the adjacent normal intestine enabling a resection of the duplication without the normal intestine.Fourteen cases(type Ⅰ11,typeⅡ3)were treated by this method and followed-up for 4 years with satisfactory results. Conclusions:Most intestinal duplications have separable vascular supply. Complete resection of the duplication with preservation of normal adjacent intestine is a satisfactory operative procedure Key words: Intestines; Mesenteric arteries; Mesenterie veins; Mesentery
