title: Similar hypocholesterolemic effect of ileal bypass and ileal excision in pigs.
abstract: We have compared the effect of partial ileal bypass versus ileal excision on the level of serum cholesterol in cholesterol-fed pigs. Both surgical procedures drastically lowered serum cholesterol in spite of continuation of cholesterol feeding. No evidence was obtained for a differential hypocholesterolemic effect of ileal bypass and excision.
