The anastomotic surgical titanium staple is similar in shape to a regular staple and is approximately 3mm long.
The anastomosis is made by stapling the inner and outer plates together with titanium staples. Titanium alloy is histocompatible and does not cause foreign body reactions in the skin, so there is no discomfort such as suture-like redness or swelling. The titanium nail will automatically fall off with the wound healing process after fixation.
The anastomotic surgical titanium staple has the advantages of neat anastomotic incision, less intraoperative bleeding, no need for sutures, significantly shorter operation time, and no need for suture removal after the titanium staple falls off automatically. Its disadvantages mainly include that the titanium nail is easy to fall off prematurely, the incision is not completely healed, and it is necessary to close the fissure again. There are also a small number of titanium nails that are not easy to fall off or delayed fall off, and need to be removed manually, and there will be pain when removing the nails.
In addition, the anastomosis surgery titanium nail looks small, if prematurely fall off, need to professional doctors to change the local medicine. If it does not fall off for a long time, it is necessary to go to the outpatient clinic for manual local surgery to remove the titanium nail.
