In 78 patients undergoing laparotomy suturing was carried out using absorbable thread (polyglyconate - Maxon) with eyelet to obtain a continuous knot-free suture according to Smead Jones' technique. A prospective study was made of all surgical wounds three months after the operation to evaluate the reliability of this technique. On examination, wounds were fully healed in 98% of patients. Less than 2% of patients revealed infections, dehiscence or anomalous granulations of the wound. No laparocele were observed at the time of control using this method. Continuous suture using a trimethylene polyglyconate (Maxon) thread with eyelet according to the Smead Jones technique was found to be safe and effective. A follow-up after a longer interval will be performed in this group of patients in order to confirm these conclusions.
