[Treatment of intestinal obstruction after surgery (author's transl)].

A revision of the children which during the last five years have undergone abdominal surgery is presented. 2% showed postoperative intestinal obstruction due to adhesions. Intestinal plication has been performed in children with a great amount of adhesions. A comparison is made of the Childs-Phillips and the Noble plication operation. Results in both cases showed to be good. The greater facility and the shorter duration of the surgery in the Childs-Phillips plication operation make this last technic more advisable.
