[One-row continuous suture in abdominal surgery].

One-row continuous suture (OCS) was used in 3605 patients while placing anastomoses in different parts of the digestive tract, extrahepatic bile ducts and pancreas as well as suturing after gastrostomy and choledochotomy. Two techniques of OCS were used. In 526 patients OCS was used for biliary tract surgery with complications rate 1.3%. In surgery of the stomach and small intestine OCS was used in 2606 patients; the insufficiency rate of stomach and small intestine anastomoses was equal (0.04%). In surgery of colon and rectum OCS was used in 405 patients; insufficiency rate was 1.5%. In surgery of the pancreas this suture was used in 70 patients without complications after surgery. Analysis of the data shows high reliability of OCS for anastomoses in abdominal surgery and allows to recommend its wider use in clinical practice.

[Comparative aspects of the diagnosis of diseases of organs of the hepato-pancreatico-duodenal zone].

The results of investigations the hepato-pancreatico-duodenal organs are analysed. High diagnostic effectiveness of the ultrasound examination in acute cholecystitis (95.5%) is demonstrated. In chronic calculous cholecystitis and in choledocholithiasis the ultrasound examination appeared to be accurate in 97.0% and 84.2% of cases respectively. Retrograde cholangiopancreatography was the most informative method for detection of the concrements in choledochus (effective in 94.4% of the cases). The diagnostic effectiveness of the ultrasound examination and laparoscopy in detection of mechanical jaundice and acute pancreatitis are considered to be equal. Ultrasound examination, retrograde cholangiopancreatography, laparoscopy appeared to be the most accurate and informative methods in diagnosis of the diseases of the organs of hepato-pancreatico-duodenal zone. The role of the X-ray examination decreased. At the same time the significance and reliability of intraoperative cholangiography has been stressed.

[Prevention of microbial contamination of surgical wounds].

Comparative analysis of 3707 operations on the organs of the abdominal cavity has shown the significant advantage of the suggested by the authors method for intraoperative wound protection with latex rubber in combination with placing the longitudinal removable sutures over the subcutis and skin, and dressing-free management of the wounds in prophylaxis of the postoperative purulent wound complications. After 310 operations of different contamination degree performed with the use of the given method, no suppuration of the operative wounds was noted.
