THIS STUDY IS GOING TO COMPARE THE INCIDENCE OF BURST ABDOMEN IN PATIENTS UNDERGOING LAPAROTOMY WOUND CLOSURE IN CONTINUOUS VERSUS INTERRRUPTED-X MANNER

Conditions

  • Duodenal Perforation
  • Bowel Perforated

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Continuous suturing

In continuous closure, each bite will be taken 2 cm from the cut edge of linea alba and successive bites taken 1 cm from each other in continuous fashion followed by gentle approximation of the wound

PROCEDURE

Interrupted X suturing

In interrupted X closure, large bite will be taken outside-in, 2 cm from the cut edge of linea alba and the needle emerged on the other side from inside out diagonally 2 cm from the edge and 4 cm below the first bite and this strand will be crossed and continued outside-in, diagonally at 90 degree to the first diagonal.
