Retrograde spread of contrast medium released from suppositories - A partial explanation for the efficacy of therapeutic suppositories

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

1. Standard-size Gastrografin-containing suppositories were inserted in 31 subjects to study the retrograde colonic spread of the contrast material. 2. In 20 of the 33 examinations, the mid-descending or more proximal colon was outlined during the 2-hr. study period. 3. This demonstration would seem to help explain the known effectiveness of therapentic suppositories in certain diseases of the colon.
