A COMPARISON OF THE FLOW OF IODINE 125 THROUGH THREE DIFFERENT INTESTINAL ANASTOMOSES

STANDARD, GAMBEE, AND STAPLER

Clifford R. Wheeless, Jr, MD and Jeffrey J. Smith, MD

From the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, The Union Memorial Hospital Baltimore, Maryland.

Angiogenesis determines blood supply, and it is postulated that after surgery, the healing of a wound is directly related to the blood supplied to the surrounding tissues. As a first step in evaluating the process of flow through different surgical anastomoses, the flow rate of 125I through three different types of anastomoses in the intestines of dogs was determined. When the results were compared, the flow rate through the stapler anastomosis was significantly higher than the flow rate through the standard and Gambee anastomoses.
