Summary1 An account is given of the series of changes observed in the healing of an end‐in‐end anastomosis constructed in the rates ileum. 2 It was found that mucosal continuity was re‐established mainly by the contraction of newly formed granulation tissue on the peritoneal surface of the intussuscepted bowel. 3 Some aspects of stricture formation are discussed.
