    Dexon, an absorbable suture, was most suitable for canine gastrotomies. Nonabsorbable sutures like Black Perlon and Black Braided Silk also proved safe and effective in this surgical study.

    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Surgery
    • Gastrointestinal Surgery
    • Surgical Materials Science

    Background:

    • Gastrotomy, a surgical incision into the stomach, requires careful suture selection for optimal wound healing.
    • Evaluating different suture materials is crucial for minimizing complications and ensuring surgical success in gastrointestinal procedures.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To compare the efficacy and safety of an absorbable suture (Dexon) versus nonabsorbable sutures (Black Perlon, Black Braided Silk) in canine gastrotomies.
    • To determine the most suitable suture material for closing gastrotomy incisions in a canine model.

    Main Methods:

    • Thirty gastrotomies were performed on 15 dogs.
    • Sutures were placed in single-row interrupted patterns, excluding the mucosa.
    • Three suture types were tested: Dexon (absorbable), Black Perlon (nonabsorbable), and Black Braided Silk (nonabsorbable), with ten rows per material.

    Main Results:

    • No instances of suture insufficiency or dehiscence were observed across all tested materials.
    • Dexon demonstrated the highest suitability for gastrotomy closure.
    • Nonabsorbable sutures (Black Perlon and Black Braided Silk) did not result in any complications during the study period.

    Conclusions:

    • Dexon is a highly suitable absorbable suture material for canine gastrotomies.
    • Both Black Perlon and Black Braided Silk are safe nonabsorbable alternatives for gastrotomy closure, without causing complications in this study.
