The aim of this study was to examine the mechanical behavior of the colon using tensile tests under different loading speeds. Specimens were taken from different locations of the colonic frame from refrigerated cadavers. The specimens were submitted to uniaxial tensile tests after preconditioning using a dynamic load (1 m/s), intermediate load (10 cm/s), and quasi-static load (1 cm/s). A total of 336 specimens taken from 28 colons were tested. The stress-strain analysis for longitudinal specimens indicated a Young's modulus of 3.17 ±â€¯2.05 MPa under dynamic loading (1 m/s), 1.74 ±â€¯1.15 MPa under intermediate loading (10 cm/s), and 1.76 ±â€¯1.21 MPa under quasi-static loading (1 cm/s) with p < 0.001. For the circumferential specimen, the stress-strain curves indicated a Young's modulus of 3.15 ±â€¯1.73 MPa under dynamic loading (1 m/s), 2.14 ±â€¯1.3 MPa under intermediate loading (10 cm/s), and 0.63 ±â€¯1.25 MPa under quasi-static loading (1 cm/s) with p < 0.001. The curves reveal two types of behaviors of the colon: fast break behavior at high speed traction (1 m/s) and a lower break behavior for lower speeds (10 cm/s and 1 cm/s). The circumferential orientation required greater levels of stress and strain to obtain lesions than the longitudinal orientation. The presence of taeniae coli changed the mechanical response during low-speed loading. Colonic mechanical behavior varies with loading speeds with two different types of mechanical behavior: more fragile behavior under dynamic load and more elastic behavior for quasi-static load.
