Halsted's suture is other- wise known as the "mattress ; Halsted claims that it is preferable to Lembert's because one row is suffi- cient, it tears out less easily, and con- stricts the tissues less. It is interest- ing to note that several well-known British surgeons have conceded this claim, having observed that the Czerny- Lembert suture generally gives rise to the formation of a ridge in the interior of the bowel which acts as a diaphragm and contracts the lumen. The stitches are inserted about one-third of an inch from the divided edges, and are brought out just free of them. Incision of the intestinal wall is performed for the relief of obstruction by fecal concrement or foreign bodies, provided any in- flammatory process that the object has induced is not of such in- tensity that gangrene is threatened, when enterectomy is the only hope of a cure. The abdominal cavity being opened and the omentum pushed aside (see Celiotomy), distended loops of intestine usually appear at the wound. These are always on the proximal side of the obstruc- tion. For some distance above, the gut is dilated about one and one-half times, or twice larger than below the seat of obstruction,.
