Use of polytetrafluorethylene films for closing of abdominal cavity under conditions of experimental peritonitis.
Four variants of polytetrafluorethylene films differing by size of micropores and manufacturing technology were used for closing of the abdominal cavity under conditions of experimental peritonitis in rats. The results of tensiometry and planimetry helped us to select the optimal variant of polytetrafluorethylene film characterized by sufficient strength, minimum size of micropores, and causing minimum complications.
