The efficacy and results of medical treatment in postoperative ileus.

Background: Postoperative paralytic ileus refers to the disruption of the normal coordinated propulsive motor activity of the gastrointestinal system following surgery. Surgery causes inflammation in the muscle walls of organs with an intestinal lumen that, in turn, leads to a decrease in intestinal motility.

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of gastrografin, neostigmine, and their combined administration in patients diagnosed with paralytic ileus in the postoperative period.
