Abstract | ||||
Small colon enterotomies were performed in nine adult healthy horses through the antimesenteric teniae and adjacent to the teniae. Gambee and Lembert sutures were used for the closure of the enterotomies in both locations. Vicryl was used as a sole suture material for both patterns. This comparative study proved that lembert suture was easier, faster, and better than gambee suture concerning efficacy of technique and the healing process. | ||||
