A new study by Lena Seifert and team showed that compared to interrupted suture, biliary-enteric anastomosis (BEA) continuous suture is quicker and similarly safe. The findings of this study were published in British Journal of Surgery.
Although either continuous suture or interrupted suture methods can be used to conduct biliary-enteric anastomosis, there is insufficient high-quality information to support the superiority of either method. In order to assess the suture procedures for patients undergoing BEA, this study was undertaken by examining the suture time as well as short- and long-term biliary problems.
