Abstract
Abdominal aortic surgery leads to a severe inflammatory reaction, which remains for about a week after surgery. The aim of this experiment is to trace interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor (TNFa) in the plasma, during aortic repair in two different conditions: when the placing of a synthetic implant on the aorta is sutured conventionally and when is sutured by using titanium clips and hemostatic bio-glue. Fifteen pigs were divided into 3 equal groups. In group A only operation of the aorta and then blockage of the circulation for 2 hours was made. In group B the operation of the aorta and the 2 hours blockage of the circulation was followed by the placing of a synthetic patch on the aorta sutured with Prolene 6/0.
