Abstract
Large nephrotomy incisions made in 15 dogs were closed by sewing up the cavity system with stitches of 5/0 catgut and by sealing the renal parenchyma with tissue adhesive being pinpointed at the opened vessels. The incision was covered with a preparation of oxidized cellulose which was then likewise impregnated with tissue adhesive. This technique was found rapid and convenient and provided for adequate haemostasis. Its essential advantage lies in eliminating the deep through-and-through sutures involving a major loss of functioning renal parenchyma. All substances used were absorbed in due time.
