TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - RESECTION OF SMALL INTESTINE, STAPLED A1 - Ellison, E. Christopher A1 - Zollinger, Robert M. Y1 - 2016 N1 - T2 - Zollinger's Atlas of Surgical Operations, 10e AB - Various portions of the small intestine are resected for a variety of reasons. Emergency procedures involving interference with the blood supply by a strangulated hernia, a volvulus due to a fixed adhesion, mesenteric thrombosis, traumatic injuries, localized tumors, and regional enteritis are among the indications for small bowel resection. Occasionally it may be judicious to perform an enteroenterostomy in the presence of many adhesions or extensive regional ileitis in an effort to avoid further resection of the already shortened small bowel resulting from previous extensive resections.
