[Technic of heterotopic transplantation of the small intestine in swine: reno-mesenteric transplantation]. / Une technique de transplantation hétérotopique de l'intestin grêle chez le porc: la transplantation réno-mésentérique.

ABSTRACT

The authors report a new technique of heterotopic transplantation of the small intestine reno-mesenteric transplantation. The advantages of this technique are recalled, especially when intestinal transplantation is carried out some time after removal of the intestine. In fact, in this case, orthotopic transplantation is difficult owing to the relationship between the mesenteric stump and the fibrous scar.
