Abstract
Sea lamprey larvae Petromyzon marinus were incised full thickness through their abdominal wall and the wounds closed with one of three closure techniques: cyanoacrylate adhesive (glue), a simple interrupted (SI) suture pattern, and an interrupted horizontal mattress (HM) pattern. Postoperative mortality was 13% for the glued animals and 7% for both sutured groups. No significant differences were found between groups with respect to occurrence of abdominal eviscerations, adhesions, granulation tissue or intact epithelium. The HM pattern reduced significantly the occurrence of abdominal hernia formation compared to the glued animals. Gross inflammation was found to decrease from 100% at day five to 20% at 2 weeks in both suture groups, but decreased only from 80 to 60% for glued animals through the course of the study. Some sutures remained intact in the HM group at 2 weeks, yet no sutures remained in the SI group. No glue was present on any of the wounds treated with tissue adhesive at any collection period. Tissue apposition was achieved best with the HM pattern and this may improve the animal's chance for normal, long‐term survival.
