AIM:To elucidate the effect of various solutions for small bowel graft preservation in pigs under hypothermic storage. METHODS: The swine segmental small bowel graft was autotransplanted after it was preserved with lactated Ringer's (LR), Euro-Collins (EC), hyperosmolarity citrate adenine (HC-A) and WMO-1 solutions for 10,18 and 24 hours,respectively.The recipient survival rate, morphological structure, graft mucosal energy substances and Na( +) -K(+) ATPase activity were studied,and graft absorption was estimated with D-xylose absorption test. RESULTS: The morphological study of the grafts preserved with LR or HC-A solution for 10 hours or with EC and WMO-1 solution for 18 hours was normal 6days after operation. Mucosal ATP,total adenine nucleotides (TAN) contents and Na( +) -K(+)ATPase activity of the graft preserved with EC or WMO solution were higher than that of the graft preserved with LR or HC-A solution.Serum level of D-xylose was higher in EC and WMO-1 groups than in LR and HC-A groups when the graft was preserved for 24 hours. CONCLUSION: EC and WMO-1 solutions can preserve the swine small bowel up to 18 hours, which are superior to LR and HC-A solutions.
