title: [Low-residue diets supplemented with fermentable fiber. Effect on experimental colonic anastomosis].
abstract: Presentation of an experimental study comparing the scarring of colic anastomoses performed in Wistar rats fed with three different types of diet: a standard laboratory diet, an enteral low-residue diet and a low-residue diet supplemented with fermentable fibre in short chain fatty acids (pectin). Scarring in the group fed with the standard laboratory diet showed greater anastomotic complications, and the microscopic appearance was more inflamed. The administration of low-residue diets reduced the level of complications, but also reduced the concentration of collagen and the parietal rupture tension. The addition of pectin to a low-residue diet maintained the complications at a low level, and also significantly increased the pressure parameters and the collagen concentration.
