[100 consecutive colonic resections with single layer sutures and early radiologic postoperative controls]. 1976

K Hell, and M Rossetti, and M Allogöwer

A prospective study concerning 100 consecutive cases of colonic resections and anastomosis with single layer sutures is reported where radiological controls 10-12 days postoperatively had been carried out. An anastomotic insufficency was recognized clinically in 15%; in 6% a small leakage was only detectable radiologically. 50% of all anastomotic deficencies were seen in cases with preexisting perforation peritonitis or ileus, especially if an emergency resection had been necessary due to septic complications. 3 out of the 7 deaths were connected with dehiscence in the suture line.
