title: [Early diagnosis of ileus by the gastrointestinal passage of a resorbable contrast medium and of recurrent intestinal obstruction].
abstract: The differential diagnosis of paralytic ileus vs mechanical intestinal obstruction using Gastrografin is a useful method because a correct decision can be made for or against surgery in doubtful cases. Gastrografin is a valuable diagnostic aid in cases with pseudo-obstruction since recurrent obstruction often seems to be a pseudo-obstruction. We doubt if a recurrent obstruction should be treated by any method of intestinopexy.
