Fig. 357.—Enucleation of an interstitial myoma ; A, disposition of sutures after enucleation (after Pozzi). the large vessels can be avoided, when the tumor can easily be shelled out from its bed with the fingers or with the aid of blunt instruments. Occasionally strong septa of fibrous tissue passing from the adjacent tissues into the tumor have to be cut with scissors. Bleeding points are at once ligated with catgut. When the cavity is large Martin uses a cross-drain passed through the cervix into the vagina. The cavity is closed by several rows of catgut sutures, as shown in Figure 357, a.
