Abstract
Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate time to closure, bursting pressures and luminal diameters of a single and double-layer end-to-end anastomoses in normal equine descending colon.
Study design: Experimental study.
Sample population: Eight adult horses.
Methods: Four segments of descending colon from each horse were randomly assigned to a control (n = 8, CON), one-layer (n = 12, group 1; continuous Lembert pattern), or two-layer group (n = 12, group 2; simple continuous oversewn with Cushing pattern). Anastomoses were performed, and time to closure and luminal diameter were measured. Bursting pressures were determined, and location of failure was recorded. Mixed analysis of variance (ANOVA) was employed.
Results: Mean time to completion was decreased (p = .003) in group 1 (18.6 min ± 22.8 s) compared with group 2 (21.35 min ± 22.8 s). Luminal diameter was reduced (p < .0001) in group 2 (47 ± 2.46 mm) compared to group 1 (65 ± 2.77 mm). Location of failure was remote to the anastomosis in all but one segment; therefore, differences in anastomotic bursting pressures could not be determined.
Conclusion: Two-layer closures resulted in significant luminal reduction and took longer to complete than one-layer anastomoses.
Clinical significance: Use of one-layer closures may be advantageous primarily with respect to luminal diameter.
期刊介绍:
Veterinary Surgery, the official publication of the American College of Veterinary Surgeons and European College of Veterinary Surgeons, is a source of up-to-date coverage of surgical and anesthetic management of animals, addressing significant problems in veterinary surgery with relevant case histories and observations.
It contains original, peer-reviewed articles that cover developments in veterinary surgery, and presents the most current review of the field, with timely articles on surgical techniques, diagnostic aims, care of infections, and advances in knowledge of metabolism as it affects the surgical patient. The journal places new developments in perspective, encompassing new concepts and peer commentary to help better understand and evaluate the surgical patient.
