[Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) after endotoxin infusion into the common bile duct of rabbits (author's transl)].
Endotoxin from E. coli was infused into the distally ligated common bile duct of rabbits under the static pressure of 25 cm H2O. Fibrinogen, soluble fibrin monomer complexes, antithrombin III, leukocyte and platelet counts were estimated before, and 2, 4, and 6 h after endotoxin infusion. All parameters were found significantly changed 2 h after endotoxin infusion. While fibrinogen level, AT III, leukocyte and platelet counts decreased after the endotoxin infusion the amount of SFMC increased. The change of hematological parameters showed a pattern characteristic of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). In accordance with this microclots in the glomeruli of the kidneys could be demonstrated in all endotoxin-treated animals by pathological study. The findings suggest that by endotoxin infusion into the common bile duct, as a focal origin, DIC can be produced.
