Stress State and Optimization of the Parameters of Interrupted and Machine Surgical Sutures of Human Intestine

  • Published:
Mechanics of Composite Materials Aims and scope

For the first time, an approximate solution of the problem on the stress state of one of the main types of medical suture — an interrupted or an identical machine suture — is suggested with the example of human intestinal anastomosis.
