[Practical possibilities of omentoorgranopexy]

Anatomy of the greater omentum was studied in 129 human cadavers with a special regard to its size, shape and type of blood supply. The experiment on omentization of various parenchymal organs in 125 dogs has been run. On the grounds of the analysis of the findings some recommendations concerned with the use of various methods of the great omentum plasty, aimed at the omentization of organs situated both close to the omentum base and at some distance from it, are given.
