Obvious weight loss 9 d postsurgery, despite some food intake and stool formation. A postmortem examination 10 d postsurgery showed an incomplete ileus caused by an adhesion around the first upstream anastomosis. ^#One animal with a high fever showed light ileum distension, with abundant air, as well as diarrhea. ^{^}One animal developed a localized abscess in the abdominal surgical site.
