In a consecutive and non-selected study of 54 kidney transplanted dogs, 12 cases of
intussusception
of the small intestine developed in 8 dogs. The patogenesis is still unknown. It has been postulated that the time of the operation (4--7 hours) and the segmental termination of the post-operative atony in the intestine are essential factors in this fatal complication. The last 16 dogs in this material were peroperatively treated with antikolinergics (
Mestinon
NFN), which was continued until normal function of the intestine. In these dogs there were no evidence of
intussusception
. The value of this profylaxis is open to discussion and it is essential to solve the problem of
intussusception
through a "blind" and controlled trial.
