Training model for the intraluminal continuous suturing technique for microvascular anastomosis.

ABSTRACT: Microvascular anastomosis is a critical procedure in cerebral bypass surgeries. In some rare cases, the extraluminal interrupted technique is not optimal because the vessels are immobile and cannot be rotated, and anastomosis can be performed effectively through the intraluminal continuous suturing technique. The authors reported the application of the intraluminal continuous suturing technique in microanastomosis training with silicone tube, rat's common iliac arteries and abdominal aorta. A silicone tube with a diameter of 1.5 mm was used to practice microanastomosis in intraluminal continuous suturing technique. Then the technique was applied in side-to-side, end-to-side anastomoses of common iliac arteries and the end-to-end abdominal aorta anastomoses of rat. The suturing time and patency rates were compared with an alternative intraluminal continuous suturing technique and one-way-up interrupted suturing technique in silicone tube and rat vessel anastomoses. The intraluminal continuous suturing technique could be gained through practicing with silicone tube, and the technique has also been demonstrated effective in side-to-side, end-to-side anastomoses of common iliac arteries of rat and the abdominal aorta end-to-end anastomoses. In all the animal experimental groups with different suturing techniques, there was no difference between the patency rates, all the immediate patency rate was 100%. There was no significant suturing time difference between the two intraluminal continuous suturing techniques, but the two intraluminal continuous suturing techniques were faster than the interrupted technique. The intraluminal continuous suturing technique described in the study could be used as an efficient method for side-to-side, end-to-side and end-to-end anastomosis, especially under the situation the posterior wall of the anastomosis could not be rotated. Proficiency of the technique could be achieved through practicing in laboratory with silicone tube and live animals.

Project description:INTRODUCTION:Radical prostatectomy is the mainstay of treatment for prostate cancer. The vesicourethral anastomosis is a critical step, which most likely impacts urinary continence and urethral stenosis. To date, it still remains unclear whether interrupted and continuous suturing for the anastomosis have different outcomes. Therefore, the aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to compare different suture techniques for vesicourethral anastomosis in terms of surgical and functional parameters. METHODS AND ANALYSIS:A comprehensive literature search will be conducted covering MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and ClinicalTrials.gov. Studies comparing interrupted versus continuous suturing will be included in the analyses. No language restrictions will be applied. Screening, data extraction, statistical analysis and reporting will be done in line with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Quality assessment will be performed with the help of the Cochrane Collaboration's tool for assessing risk of bias and the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale for assessing quality of non-randomised studies. The quality of evidence will be evaluated with the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation. The primary outcome will be the time until removal of the urinary catheter. Secondary outcomes include rate of extravasation, length of hospital stay, time needed to perform the anastomosis, continence level at defined postoperative intervals and development of urethral strictures. Quantitative analysis will be calculated if meaningful. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION:In order to meet the highest ethical and methodological standards. we followed the PRISMA Protocol 2015 checklist. Each item was answered appropriately. For systematic reviews the ethical issues are strictly methodological as only data that were published earlier will be used. The full manuscript will be submitted to a peer-reviewed journal. Furthermore, the results will be presented on national and international congresses.

Project description:BackgroundMyomectomy is now often performed laparoscopically rather than by laparotomy to alleviate the risk of postoperative adhesions and reduce postoperative pain. However, intracorporeal knot-tying under direct laparoscopy is difficult and requires proficiency. We conducted a retrospective study comparing the results of a long unidirectional barbed suturing technique (with V-Loc180 suture) and the results of conventional suturing as applied to laparoscopic myomectomy.MethodsIn women who underwent laparoscopic myomectomy in our university hospital between January 2011 and April 2013, uninterrupted suturing of 2 or more layers was performed. These women were divided into 2 groups according to the method of suturing: those in whom standard absorbable sutures were used (group P, n =42) and those in whom our suturing technique was used (group V, n =41). Patient characteristics and surgical variables were compared between the 2 groups.ResultsNo significant between-group difference was observed in age (p = .975), body mass index (p = .778), GnRHa administration (p = .059), intraoperative vasopressin dose (p = .364), intraoperative blood loss (73.8 ± 64.1 vs. 59.3 ± 54.0 mL, respectively; p = .199), myoma mass (212.6 ± 133.3 vs. 208.3 ± 198.4 g, respectively; p = .134), ΔHb (p = .517), or postoperative hospital stay (p = .314). Operation time (mean ± SD) was significantly shorter for group V (71.2 ± 22.9 minutes; range, 28.0-110.0 minutes; p < .001) than for group P (94.4 ± 27.2 minutes; range, 53.0-165.0 minutes). No patient required intraoperative transfusion or conversion to laparotomy.ConclusionsOur suturing technique exploits the features of unidirectional barbed sutures and can be used in the same way as the conventional method when performing continuous suturing for laparoscopic myomectomy. Our data suggest that operation time can be reduced by as much as 25% with this new technique.
