[Endoluminal protection of colorectal anastomosis by Coloshield. Apropos of 14 cases].

Ideal exeresis with immediate anastomosis protected by an endoluminal shield (Coloshield) was performed in a series of 14 patients with left colic lesions for which the classical treatment would have been exeresis without anastomosis. No post-operative anastomotic fistulas were observed; one case of secondary stenosis of the anastomosis was treated successfully by endoscopic dilatation. The results of this series suggest that this technique is a reliable method of internal intestinal by-pass which offers real progress by allowing left colon exeresis with immediate anastomosis even in case with unfavourable local conditions.

[Tubular grafts of the inferior vena cava for portacaval shunts. Principle, technic and preliminary clinical results].

A technique for performance of portocaval shunt operations using tubular inferior vena cava grafts is proposed. The aim of this method is to avoid prosthetic or venous interposition with their risk of thrombosis. It is based on results of cadaver experimental studies and a clinical case. Different possible grafts are described, including useful sizes, advantages and inconveniences and clinical indications. Two types are selected: that resected from left surface of subhepatic vena cava for portocaval anastomosis and that obtained from anterior surface of infrarenal vena cava for mesentericocaval anastomosis.
