Abstract：
:Dissatisfaction with time-consuming double layer anastomoses in intestinal surgery and with occasionally questionable stapled anastomoses prompted a review of available techniques for hand sewn suture lines. Single layer anastomoses have been used extensively and their integrity and safety have often been questioned. In 1951, Gambee described a method of single layer anastomosis which, in practice, is a double layer technique. His results at 10 years were comparable to those obtained with other techniques. We have sought a modification to decrease anastomotic complications and improve ease of suture insertion. Along with a description of technique, a review of 170 anastomoses performed from July 1982 to June 1984 is presented without a single clinically apparent leak.
