title: [Method of protecting of sutures in the stomach and intestines].
abstract: The authors have developed and described the method for intraoperative prophylaxis of complications caused by incompetence of the sutures on the stomach and bowels. It consists in closure of the sutures along the line of contiguity by two-layers of compact-porous collagenous explants, which possess antibacterial properties, the period of resorption in abdominal cavity being 15-20 days. The characteristics of the explants are presented and their advantages compared to commonly used methods covering by pellicle or glue film peritonization by sero-muscular sutures. Application of collagenous explants from "Sanguicol" preparation in surgical treatment of 155 patients with external intestinal fistulas, compared to peritonization by sero-muscular sutures (66 patients), has demonstrated a high effectiveness of proposed explants in prevention of postoperative intraabdominal complications.
