Evaluation of a single-layer intestinal anastomosis: an experimental study
Abstract
Fifteen single-layer and 15 double-layer inverting intestinal anastomoses were made in the small intestines of 15 healthy mongrel dogs and the results were compared. The single-layer anastomosis was found to be superior to the double-layer procedure in many respects.
