Abstract An alternative method of anastomosis using a suture one layer inverting was proposed, in which the sutures are placed the serosa, proper muscle layer, submucosal layer and muscularis mucosae, but not mucosa. An experimental study using canine intestine revealed that tensile strength as well as bursting pressure at the anastomotic site is significantly superior in our method to the end-on method.
