[Mechanical strength and biological hermeticity of esophageal anasthomosis in vivo].
Intrapleural esophagogastric anastomosis was experimentally formed in 32 dogs. There were 2 types of anastomoses: two-layer manual ligature anastomosis and compression suture formed with apparatus of own construction. It is ascertained that compression suture possesses more mechanical strength compared with manual ligature anastomosis. During the operation anastomosis and pleural cavity are infected more often (practically in 2 times) and to a greater extent (in 14-21 times) with use of manual technique compared with compression method. Bacteriological permeability of esophagogastric anastomoses was studied. Findings signify that amount of microflora obtained from anastomosis surface and pleural cavity is less in 10-20 times with use of compression method compared with manual technique.
