Comparative Study[Removable draining aponeurotic and muscular-aponeurotic sutures in the prevention of suppuration of laparotomy wounds].
Clinico-instrumental investigations and experimental studying of the regeneration of laparotomy wounds sutured by removable draining aponeurotic and muscular-aponeurotic sutures have shown less pronounced course of aseptic inflammation in the wounds. It has been established that the removable aponeurotic sutures substantially decrease the frequency of postoperative suppurations of laparotomy wounds in patients operated on the colon mainly for colorectal carcinoma. The original authors' sutures provide the formation of a cicatrix of the laparotomy wound by the 20th day of the postoperative period and completely prevent the appearance of ligature fistulas.
