[Cutaneous closure of peritonitis].
The authors report results of prospective study about skin closure of peritonitis. Two groups are compared: Group A: continuous suture + suction drain VS Group B: simple suture at wide intervals of 4 cm. 93 patients have been included with a mean age of 53.2 +/- 23.9 and just before surgery randomized. Two groups are homogeneous. The postoperative parietal complications were respectively 12% in group A versus, 29% group B. There is a significant difference of 5% in favor of group A. Because the little size of groups, the authors conclude that closure of the skin peritonitis with "continuous suture" is not forbidden. This procedure doesn't increase morbidity.
