Sutureless functional end-to-end anastomosis using a linear stapler with polyglycolic acid felt for intestinal anastomoses
BACKGROUND Gastrointestinal anastomosis remains associated with a considerable burden of morbidity and, in some cases, mortality. Functional end-to-end anastomosis, whilst extremely efficient, is vulnerable to increased intestinal pressure in the immediate postoperative period, which may predispose to development of anastomotic leakage or bleeding. Therefore, there is a requirement for new tech...
متن کاملObtaining secure stapling of a double stapling anastomosis.
BACKGROUND Anastomotic leakage is a serious complication after rectal surgery. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of waiting time during firing of stapling devices on optimal staple formation. METHODS An endoscopic linear stapler (Echelon Flex 60 Endopath) with either a 60 mm blue or gold cartridge was applied to the cardiac and pyloric portions of 27 fresh porcine stomachs. Three...
متن کامل25-year experience of using a linear stapler in laryngectomy.
BACKGROUND Stapler application for pharyngeal closure after total laryngectomy allows for rapid watertight closure without field contamination and for potentially reduced fistula rate. METHODS One thousand four hundred fifteen patients underwent laryngectomy with linear stapler closure. In 98.6%, laryngectomy was performed after radiation failure. RESULTS A relatively high incidence of phar...
متن کاملSkin closure with polyglycolic acid (Dexon).
Cosmetically satisfactory scars were achieved in 94.5% of skin crease orchidopexy wounds sutured with subcuticular polyglycolic acid. Of twenty-seven similar wounds closed with interrupted black silk sutures 18.5% developed hypertrophy at the medial end.
متن کاملMucosal defect repair with a polyglycolic acid sheet.
OBJECTIVE Early-stage oral or oropharyngeal carcinomas are often treated with surgical resection. Resulting wounds that are too large for primary closure can be covered with skin grafts or patches made from various biomaterials. Recently, polyglycolic acid sheets have been used for this purpose. METHODS We treated six patients with large wounds resulting from the resection of oral or orophary...
