title: [Actinic lesions of the small intestine requiring surgery. Case reports].
abstract: Radiation enteropathy is a disease that seldom requires surgical treatment, in the chronic variety. We report the findings of four cases we operated in an attempt to identify the weak points of surgery involving a high percentage and morbidity of mortality. NPT (total parenteral nutrition) can favour a positive evolution with total rest of the bowel and with reinstatement of normal nutrition.
