[Primary closure and healing of the perineal wound in abdomino-perineal resection of the rectum for carcinoma (author's transl)].
The results of primary perineal closure after rectal resection for cancer are reported, about a series of 105 patients male and female; to whom this technique was systematically applied. The healing of the wound was primarily obtained in 77.2% of the cases (82.3% in males, 72.2% in females). 86% of the patients left the hospital completely healed within 30 post operative days. The authors stress the influence of the environment on the result and also discuss the practical conditions of the primary suture: hemostasis, fecal contamination, peritonisation, enlarging followed with ablation of the genital tract in women.
