The ends emerge, and by pulling, the knotis untied and the ligature pulled out, after applying the apposition parallel continuous stitch (Gushing) is used. The same principle isapplied by Walker in making lateral anastomosis. A purse-string suture THE ABDOMEN 661 is inserted and the opening in the bowel or stomach is made inside of anastomosis is then made, and the purse-string is pulled out. Thefirst half of the anastomosis suture is inserted before the openings are cut. These methods have the disadvantage that a redundant free edge ofbowel is left on each stump. These free ends hang as a constricting flap inthe lumen of the bowel and increase the amount of scar tissue. Anastomosis by simple invagination, with mucosa to peritoneum may bedone with the rectum and in
