The nitrogen balance of two groups of patients, A and B, was studied during the first four post-operative days. Groups A (31) received a daily intake of one liter of Totamine concentrée glucidique with glucose 10 p. 100 1,5 liter. Groups B received Totamine concentrée glucidique with glucose 30 p. 100 1,5 liter. There was no statistically significant difference in nitrogen balance between both groups. On the other hand, the cumulative nitrogen balance was positive for both groups for the first four post-operative days.
