[Heterotopic segmental autotransplantation of the pancreas with digestive system anastomosis in the dog].
Segmental autotransplantation of pancreas in the heterotopic position, with digestive anastomosis protected by an epiploplasty was performed in a series of 22 dogs. Twenty dogs survived the operation and nine were followed up for 4 weeks: the histologic and morphologic qualities of the graft were very favorable from both endocrine and exocrine points of view. This morphohistologic quality can be related to the digestive anastomosis performed, which failed to provoke any specific complications to a large extent. This study should be completed by improvement in the vascularization of the graft by a splenic arteriovenous fistula and a concomitant study of the endocrine function of the transplanted pancreas in dogs with experimentally-induced diabetes.
