[An improved single-layer suture in the surgery of small and large intestines]

The methods and results of using single-layer interrupted intestinal suture in operations on the small and large intestines are presented. Using the suture decreases the number of complications associated with this technique, improves the direct results of operations and reduces postoperative lethality both in urgent and planned surgery. The proposed intestinal suture is thought to be justified in connecting similar and dissimilar parts of the intestinal tube in the variants of longitudinal, transversal, terminal, lateral and termino-lateral interintestinal anastomoses.
