Contemporary stapling instruments and basic mechanical suture techniques.
Abstract
This article provides a description and demonstration of the basic linear staple closures and anastomoses, as well as of circular anastomoses. Depending on the technique used, bowel may be closed in a mucosa-to-mucosa or serosa-to-serosa fashion, and comparable results with either modality are demonstrated.
