External secretion of the liver in enteral and intragastric tube feeding

: Hepatic external secretion and main lipid components of the bile and serum were studied under a long-term intragastric and enteral tube feeding using improved surgical and technical methods, Inritan and Peptisorb mixtures. It is shown that food entering the stomach directly does not affect hepatic excretion, while enteral 2-week feeding, especially with hydrolyzed products, deranged secretory mechanisms which entails unbalance in the main bile components and defective lipid metabolism.
