The colon can have an absorptive function similar to that of the small intestine after the massive resection of the small bowel. To improve colonic absorptive function, we created a valve in the colon (artificial colonic valve, ACV). ACVs were created in 20 rats that had 80 percent of their small intestine resected, with an observation time of 30 weeks. The ACV rats were compared with those in the non-operated control group, the short bowel syndrome (SBS) group and the colon interposition (CI) group. The ACV rats were much heavier than those in the control group, SBS group and CI group. In terms of histology and the levels of α-amylase and the Na + -dependent bile salt transporter, the absorptive function of the colons before the valves resembled that of the small intestine. The colonic absorptive function was more obvious in ACV rats than in CI rats. An ACV can enhance colonic absorptive function after the massive resection of the small intestine. The colonic absorptive function of ACV rats was better than that of the rats in the CI group.
