Withscissors or knife remove any excess of tissue distal to the suture which mightinterfere with the proper approximation of the two halves of the Steps 2 and 3 on the other loop of gut. Step 4.—Remove the hemostatic forceps or corks from the two halves ofthe button. Insert the neck of the male half of the button into that of thefemale half and push them together firmly (Figs. 556 and 557). A few pointsof Lembert suture may be used to reinforce the Fig. 553.—Lateral anastomosis. Clamps in place. Posterior row seroussutures in place.

A good method of applying the stitch is shown in Fig. 558.
