Background and Aim:  Nonoperative management of cases of adhesive intestinal obstruction would be ideal, especially for patients who have recently undergone surgery to relieve the same condition. We aimed to examine whether hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy might have therapeutic potential for the treatment of postoperative paralytic ileus and recurrent adhesive intestinal obstruction soon after surgery, to relieve adhesive intestinal obstruction, because of its unique mechanisms in these…

[A multilevel obstruction of the digestive tract in a young female patient soon after delivery: a case report].
The article reports the case of a 31-year-old patient, in whom bowel ileus developed 2 days after natural delivery, and who in the second trimester underwent laparotomy due to mechanical obstruction…
Hyperbaric Oxygenation as an Adjunctive Therapy
TLDR
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy was first introduced to Japan around 1963 for cardiac surgery and now this therapy is especially carried out in brain surgery hospitals because high medical insurance mark is recognized for stroke in Japan.
Postoperative ileus: mechanisms and future directions for research
TLDR
There remains scope to accurately characterize the gastrointestinal dysfunction that underscores an ileus, development of an accurate risk stratification tool will facilitate early implementation of preventive measures and clinical appraisal of novel therapeutic strategies that target individual pathways in the pathogenesis of ileu warrant further investigation.
An Improved Clinical and Pathophysiologic Characterisation of Post-Operative Ileus
TLDR
Gastrografin is not clinically useful in shortening an episode of prolonged ileus; predictive scoring systems may identify individuals at risk of developing prolonged ilesus.

TLDR
HBO therapy is safe and non-invasive, and may be useful in the elderly patients, since mortality was relatively low in this series and the overall resolution rates were 92% and 85%, respectively.

Natural history of patients with adhesive small bowel obstruction
TLDR
The goals of this study were to determine factors predisposing to adhesive SBO, to note the long‐term prognosis and recurrence rates for operative and non‐operative treatment, to elicit the complication rate of operations and to highlight factors predictive of recurrence.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Ameliorates Bacterial Translocation in Rats with Mechanical Intestinal Obstruction
TLDR
Hyperbaric oxygen treatment significantly reduced the endogenous bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine of normal rats and prevented the bacterial translocation almost completely in obstruction-induced rats.
Long-term outcome after hospitalization for small-bowel obstruction.
TLDR
The long-term risk of recurrent small-bowel obstruction is high and is lessened by operation but not eliminated, and the risk of recurrence increases with longer duration of follow-up, but most recurrences occur within 4 years.
Hyperbaric-oxygen therapy.
TLDR
The mechanisms of action, evidence of clinical efficacy, and risks of therapy with hyperbaric oxygen are reviewed, and the risks and benefits of therapy are reviewed.
