Morphological changes in the wall of the large intestine were studied after its manual suturing by a double-row interrupted suture with modern suture threads. Light and scanning electron microscopy showed "fuse properties" and "sawing effect" of polyfilament twisted threads (e.g. vicryl). Monofilament threads were free from these drawbacks and therefore were preferable. Metal elastic threads on the basis of titanium-nickelide alloys caused no inflammatory changes in tissues.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
