Popis: HILE performing ileostomies in a number of dogs and portacaval shunts in other dogs, we noted that one animal, who had been subjected to both procedures, was exceptionally healthy eleven months later. This was particularly noteworthy because all of our animals with portacaval shunt alone do poorly and die in several weeks or months if not given special care. It is generally accepted that the colon is the primary site of ammonia production in animals and humans; therefore, in the dog with an ileostomy very little ammonia was formed and this might explain his unique course.
