In the present study, we report upon the preliminary results of our technique of myotomy--combined colon-myotomy at L shaped or transversal T shaped--which includes a simultaneous incision of both longitudinal and circular muscle fibers, avoiding a large bloody area. Ten patients have been operated upon by this method, the results of follow-up examination of seven patients who were given roentgenologic and motility studies for a maximum of 24 months being reported upon. It appears that the technique is quite safe, with no mortality or morbidity being observed in the first ten patients operated upon. Even functional results are most satisfactory. On the basis of this preliminary study, the technique seems to offer better results than do other types of colomyotomies currently being used.
