ObjectiveTo study a new method for establishing the rat model of incomplete adhesive intestinal obstruction. MethodsThe serosal stripping method was adopted, the general health condition changes of rats were observed on day 3, 5, and 7 after modeling, meanwhile the weight was measured, the superior mesenteric artery flow velocity and small intestine wall thickness were observed via the color Doppler ultrasound and orthostatic X ray. The level of D-lactate acid in the blood plasma, and the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in the intestine tissue were tested. The pathological changes of the intestine tissue were observed. ResultsCompared with the normal group (no treatment was done), the general health conditions of rats were worse, the weight significantly decreased (Plt;0.01), the superior mesenteric artery blood flow velocity significantly increased and small intestinal wall was thickened (Plt;0.05, Plt;0.01), airfluid level or a great deal of seroperitoneum and pneumatosis flat appeared via orthostatic abdominal X-ray, the level of D-lactic acid in the blood plasma and the content of MDA in the intestine tissue significantly increased on day 5 after modeling (Plt;0.05, Plt;0.01), the activity of SOD in the intestine tissue significantly decreased on day 7 after modeling in the model group (Plt;0.05). The pathological changes consistented with adhesive intestinal obstruction via pathological observation. On the 7th day, the rat model of incomplete adhesive intestinal obstruction was successfully built . ConclusionThe rat model of incomplete adhesive intestinal obstruction is completed by serosal stripping method.
