Abstract:

Techniques of aponeurosis and muscle tissue closure after midline laparotomy or retroperitoneal approaches during urgent surgical operations are comparatively evaluated. Basing on the results of treatment and observation at terms up to 45 weeks advantages of uninterrupted suture with absorbing monofilament suture material (MonoMax fibers, BBraun, Germany) compared with traditional nodular lavsan or caprone sutures were revealed. These advantages are related to decreased frequency of postoperative hernias (p=0.047), especially in long terms (p=0.0137), risk for suture inconsistency (p=0.017) and tempo of the final stage of operation (p<0.001).
