It is still not sufficiently known how nutritional management by tube feeding works clinically to the physical recovery in the early stage after oral surgery. In this paper, a clinical evaluation of tube feeding nutrition with elemental diet (Elental) and digestive diet (Medief) is comparatively reported on for cases of 7 and 13, respectively. This study comprised 10 malignant cases and 10 non-malignant ones.<BR>It was recomfirmed that nutritional management in the early stage after surgery showed similarly good effects in the two groups. It turned out that Elental was more useful for nutritional management and the improvement of nutritive conditions in serious malignant cases, compared with Medief. But it might necessitate careful practical applications because of possible occurrence of liver and kidney damage.
