Extensive small intestine resection (70--90%) as should be done after mesenteric infarction produces a chronic malabsorption syndrome with its consequences. Applying an invagination valve of the small intestine (Kock) and using the isoperistaltic modification, passage of the chyme is delayed and its resorption improved. A small intestine resection of 90% was done in 8 mongrel dogs. After an average of 2--3 months an obvious cachexia as well as a steatorrhea could be observed. By adapting an isoperistaltic small intestine invagination valve near the colon weight reduction could be stopped during another 6 months and the steatorrhea disappeared No ileus occured.
