title: [Value of small intestine transit by enteroclysis in obstructive syndromes of the small intestine. Apropos of 212 examinations].
abstract: During seven years, 212 small bowel examinations are made on patients with suspected small bowel obstruction by barium infusion. We find all the main small bowel pathology: Crohn's disease (16.5%), carcinomatosis (14.6%), neoplasia (10.3%), vascular disease (17.8%), actinic enteritis (9.5%) and miscellanous (18%). The small bowel infusion is normal in 15%. Surgery is avoided in 51% of the cases. There is non complications associated with the examination but in 12% of the cases, the examination is unsuccessful.
