Research Abstract |
The rat neonatal short bowel syndrome (SBS) model related to intestinal atresia was made at first. STEP (Serial Transverse Enteroplasty) procedure was performed for the SBS rat model one month after short bowel was made. The chronological changes of intramural components in dilated intestine after STEP procedure was investigated and compared using immunohistological staings between SBS-STEP models and SBS models. The results showed the abnormal change of intramural components (ganglion cells, nerve fibers, smooth muscle cells, and pacemaker cells) relatively improved in SBS-STEP models, compared to those in SBS models. Therefore, based on our studies, the early STEP procedure, performing before the proximal dilatation will be extremely, might induce the early improvement of the intramural abnormal changes in SBS.
