title: Tissue reactions to modern suturing material in colorectal surgery.
abstract: Morphological changes in the wall of the large intestine were studied after its manual suturing by a double-row interrupted suture with modern suture threads. Light and scanning electron microscopy showed "fuse properties" and "sawing effect" of polyfilament twisted threads (e.g. vicryl). Monofilament threads were free from these drawbacks and therefore were preferable. Metal elastic threads on the basis of titanium-nickelide alloys caused no inflammatory changes in tissues.
