title: [Consequences of resecting the ileocecal union].
abstract: 22 patients, divided in 2 groups, are studied under-going intestinal resection as consequence of different pathological entities. Group I of 13 patients who had the ileocecal unión resected. Group II is made up of 9 patients who had small fragments of the small intestine enucleated. All the patients have, among other things, various anthropometrical, hematological and biochemical parameters, and their Ca/P metabolism analyzed, as well as the elimination of urinary nitrogen in its different forms. The patients who underwent resection of the ileocecal union present anthropometrical alterations, which can be consequence of a state of chronic malnutrition. The differences found in the alkaline phosphatase and in the elimination of amino acids in the urine can be a sign of a bacterial contamination of the small intestine by fecal flora or a sign of less availability of energetic contribution.
