Antillus Operation

Antillus operation: description

The Antillus operation was performed in 1763 by the famous physician and surgeon Antillus, who lived in Ancient Greece. He was known for his research in medicine and surgery, as well as his work on the treatment of various diseases.

One of the most famous operations performed by Antillus was to remove a brain tumor from a patient. This operation was very difficult and dangerous, but Antillus successfully performed it, saving the life of the patient.

Antillus used a special instrument for the operation, which he invented himself. This instrument allowed him to perform surgery more accurately and safely than traditional instruments of the time.

Although the Antillus operation was successful, it also caused a lot of controversy and criticism from other doctors of the time. Some of them believed that such an operation was too dangerous and risky for the patient.

However, Antillus continued to perform similar operations and continued to develop his methods of treatment. Ultimately, his methods were used throughout the world and led to significant improvements in the quality of medical care.



__Antilluson operation__ is a section of abdominal surgery that involves removing part or all of the small intestine. For this purpose, resection of the small intestine is performed not only on its long artery, but also on some intersystem arteries. This is necessary in order to ligate most of the peritoneal arteries. Before the era of antibiotics, the incidence of postoperative mortality after such operations reached 50%. The _small intestine_ is an anatomical formation characterized by its functional versatility: * the digestive function (digestion, absorption) is carried out through the bacterial flora of the intestine, located in its walls, called the mucous membrane. It consists of layers of the intestinal epithelium itself, the underlying submucosa and the muscular layer; * resorptive function is ensured by the presence of a large number of blood vessels and nerve endings penetrating the entire wall; * endocrine function is carried out due to the presence of intestinal enterochromaffin-like substances in the wall of the small intestine
