[Nutritional management of anastomotic leakage after gastrointestinal surgery--with special reference to the serious cases].
1984
: Effects of intravenous hyperalimentation (IVH) were studied in 38 patients with anastomotic leakage following gastrointestinal surgery. Spontaneous closure of the leakage were found in 23 patients (60%), and surgical closure were needed in 9 patients (24%). The duration required for spontaneous closure was 5 weeks on the average; and closure occurred readily in cases of tubular fistula. Death occurred in 6 patients (16%); among these, 5 were MOF cases. The following three points are emphasized concerning measures to increase IVH efficacy in serious cases such as MOF. GFX-solution is efficacious for reduced glucose tolerance. Administration of canrenoate potassium(Soldactone), linoleic acid and BCAA enriched amino-acid mixture is effective for accelerated albumin synthesis. Concomitant treatment by IVH and ED(elemental diet) is efficacious in cases of high caloric administration.
