[Continuous loop stitch in single-layer laparotomy suturing].
The authors evaluate their favourable experience with the use of a new absorbable loop suture for one-layer closure laparotomy. The percentage of dehiscences of surgical wounds was lower in the group of patients where Safil Loop suture was used than in the control group. The speed of completing the suture was also greater and the safety of closure of laparotomy was more favourable.
