Treatment of recurrent intestinal obstruction caus

Treatment of recurrent intestinal obstruction caused by adhesions

Several procedures may be considered in the presence of recurrent obstruction including: /uni25CF repeat adhesiolysis (enterolysis) alone; /uni25CF Noble’s plication operation; Thomas Benjamin Noble , 1895–1965, surgeon, The Community Hospital, Indianapolis, IN, USA. Wesley A Childs , 1915–2005, surgeon, University of Colorado, Denver, CO, USA. Richard B Phillips , surgeon, Albuquerque, NM, USA. - unless - - /uni25CF Childs–Phillips transmesenteric plication; /uni25CF intestinal intubation. The last three operations are now very rarely performed and can probably be consigned to the history books (they have never been required by the author).
