Beneficial effect of iloprost® on impaired colonic anastomotic healing induced by intraperitoneal 5-fluorouracil infusion

Abstract: Our study showed a positive effect of Iloprost on the healing of colon anastomosis and, more importantly, if wound-healing is impaired by a chemotherapeutic agent, Iloprost counteracts and reverses the effect. [Key words: 5-Fluorouracil; Healing of colon anastomoses; Iloprost

“…To assess the strength of colonic anastomoses, the most reliable method is considered to be the measurement of their bursting pressure (28,29). In a study in rats, Bostanoglou et al (30) have mentioned that the administration of iloprost caused no statistically significant increase in the bursting pressure of the colon anastomoses. In our study, through the administration of iloprost in group 4, statistically significantly increased values in the bursting pressure of the anastomoses compared with group 2 (P <0.001) were observed.…”

“…Late anti-NGF group (Group LA-NGF, n=9) was given 500 µg/kg anti-NGF antibody immediately after (at the 10 th hour) sepsis became apparent following LPS injection. 11 Subjects which did not show sepsis symptoms within 12 hours were excluded from the study. They were replaced with new ones to reach a total number of 33 subjects.…”
