    Summary

    Securing small intestinal anastomoses with Surgicel and Histoacryl-N-Blau adhesive prevented peritonitis and ensured survival in dogs. This technique is recommended for clinical use in intestinal surgery.

    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Surgery
    • Gastrointestinal Surgery

    Background:

    • End-to-end small intestinal anastomoses are critical surgical procedures.
    • Complications such as peritonitis can arise from inadequate anastomosis security.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate a novel method for securing intestinal anastomoses in dogs.
    • To assess the efficacy of Surgicel and Histoacryl-N-Blau adhesive in preventing anastomotic leakage.

    Main Methods:

    • Twenty dogs underwent end-to-end small intestinal anastomosis.
    • Four dogs had anastomoses secured with single-line stitches.
    • The remaining dogs had sutures covered with Surgicel and fixed with Histoacryl-N-Blau adhesive.

    Main Results:

    • Dogs with single-line stitches developed fatal peritonitis.
    • No anastomotic insufficiency was observed in dogs treated with Surgicel and Histoacryl-N-Blau.
    • Adhesions and intestinal obstruction were noted in two dogs, but all animals survived.

    Conclusions:

    • Covering sutures with Surgicel and using Histoacryl-N-Blau adhesive is a safe and effective method for securing intestinal anastomoses.
    • This technique significantly reduces the risk of peritonitis and anastomotic leakage.
    • The method is recommended for securing intestinal anastomoses and stumps in surgical patients.
