peer agreement (net): +1tacking suture Explanation: Soweit ich weiß, geht es darum, durch die "Stufennaht" eine Gewebestufe zu sichern, die durch das Ausschälen der Plaque entstehen kann. Wenn das Blut nach der Operation gegen eine solche Stufenbildung anströmt, besteht die Gefahr, dass die oberste (oder innerste, je nach Blickwinkel) Gewebeschicht abgeschert wird und eine Gefäßdissektion entsteht. Deshalb "tackert" man die Gefäßwandschichten hinter der Ausschälungsstelle mit ein paar Nähten aufeinander. "The internal carotid artery is closely inspected to ensure that there is no loose flap superiorly. If there is any concern about a distal intimal flap or the possibility of dissection, the intima on the level of 'fracture' is 'tacked' to the adventitia with 7/0 monofilament suture passed from the internal aspect of the plaque through the adventitia and secured external to the vessel." http://www.wcccd.edu/dept/pdf/AF/Lecture Carotid Endarterect... "If a smooth distal taper is not achieved, placement of interrupted 7-0 monofilament tacking sutures may be necessary to secure the endpoint." http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/1895291-technique |
