[Improvement of the postoperative period in surgery for tumors of the mouth floor by parenteral nutrition].
Since August 1977 total parenteral nutrition is part of post operative care for pull through operations for growth of floor of the mouth. The first 14 patients under total parenteral nutrition (from August 1977 until April 1980) are compared with the previous 14 patients. The length of the post operative period had slightly diminished but without statistical significance. On the other hand there is a significant difference for alimentary autonomy on discharge and number of complications (p less than 0.05). Our good handling of total parenteral nutrition has not replaced some complications by others.
