Data on the pathophysiology and clinical aspects of the mechanical obstruction of the small intestine.

A brief overview is given of the relevant physiology of the small intestine, and the pathomechanism of the clinical picture, based on a material of 423 patients with mechanical obstruction of the small intestine. The various forms of the mechanical obstruction of the small intestine are reviewed, with special regard to strangulation and adhesive obstruction. The possible forms of treatment are dealt with, with an emphasis on the importance of an early surgical intervention and of a careful after-treatment with a view to reducing the still high morbidity rate.
