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.
