Small vs. Large Suture Bite-to-Stitch Interval for Closure of Midline Celiotomy in Cats: A Biomechanical Study

Objective: The objective of this study was to compare the bursting strength and characterize the mode of failure of cranial and caudal midline celiotomies closed with 2 suture patterns and an absorbable monofilament suture material.Design: Randomized, cadaveric, ex- vivo mechanical testing.Sample: F...
