Abstract
The authors present radiological aspects of small bowel after extensive resection. They describe the main phenomena related to compensatory hypertrophy: dilatation of the loops, muscosal fold thickening and motor disturbances. The main complications demonstrated by the radiological examination are presented; gallstones, non-functionning anastomosis, bacterial overgrowth.
