Q. Explain Limited mucosal contact diarrhoea?
Limited mucosal contact diarrhoea: It results from situations of inadequate mixing of chyme (semi-liquid mass of food passing through intestine) and inadequate exposure of chyme to intestinal epithelium because of destruction and decreased mucosa due to surgical procedure. This type of diarrhoea is usually complicated by steatorrhoea (increased amount of fat in feces).
