Abstract
Exclusion of a gastrointestinal segment for incorporation in the urinary tract induces
structural and functional changes both in the remaining alimentary tract and in the isolate
exposed to urine. Indeed, resection and bypass have been the most widely used methods
for studying the morphological and functional adaptability of the gut. For an overview of
the various factors regulating growth of the gastrointestinal mucosa, readers are referred
to Thompson et al.1
