Objective:
To improve the results of treatment of patients undergoing laparotomy by using of a new method of aponeurosis suturing after laparotomy.
Material And Methods:
Training process for a new method of aponeurosis suturing after laparotomy was organized on the patented medical simulator for learning the technique of laparotomy closure. The method was introduced into surgical practice later. The study involved 130 patients who underwent emergency abdominal surgery through median laparotomy. The main group consisted of 70 patients (laparotomy closure using the proposed method (RF patent No.2644846 dated 02/14/18). Interrupted sutures were applied for aponeurosis suturing in the control group.
Results:
Duration of laparotomy closure was similar in both groups. Postoperative ventral hernias in 1 year after surgery occurred in 5 (8%) patients of the main group and in 11 (18%) patients of the control group.
Conclusion:
The proposed method of aponeurosis suturing after laparotomy is mastered by students and serves as effective method for prevention of postoperative ventral hernias and eventration.
