title: [Results of a fast colic preparation].
abstract: Experience with whole-gut irrigation as a method of bowel preparation in 100 patients undergoing surgery is described. The use of this technique, the physiological records and the results are very satisfactory. Bowel movements start on the 3.2 postoperative day; stools are passed on the 5.7 day. Despite the absence of antibiotic prophylaxy, there were only 3.7% anastomotic leakage and 3.4% wound septic complications.
