A New Technique for Intestinal End-to-End Anastomosis in Dogs

In this study a new appositional end-to-end intestinal anastomosis with interrupted intraluminal knotting Vs extraluminal was investigated experimentally on eight dogs that were divided randomly into two groups (A & B), including four for each. In group (A) anastomosis was performed by end-to-end appositional by simple interrupted stitches, with their knots tied intraluminally. While, in group (B) anastomosis was performed by the same appositional method, but the stitches were tied extraluminally, by poly glycolic acid 0-3 suture material for both groups. The results showed that the anastomotic procedure in group (A) as compared with group (B) was associated with minimal degrees of stenosis & minimal intra-abdominal adhesions macroscopically, and with higher rates of healing process microscopically. In conclusion, this new intestinal appositional end-to-end anastomosis by simple interrupted sutures with the knots tied intraluminally, provided minimal degrees of stenosis & adhesions and higher rates of healing process. ةدیدج ةینقت ل ممفت ةیاهن ءاعملأا _ بلاكلا يف ةیاهنل
