The exteriorized intestines weere returned to the abdomen in the opposite order that it was exteriorized., The sheep was induced with 1.62 mL of 5 mg/kg, 100 mg/mL Ketamine and 1.62 mL 1 mg/kg, 20 mg/mL Lidocaine. ???? Once in the abdominal cavity, a finger was used to palpate inside the incision for any adhesions. Once no adhesions are found, the surgery was continued. And abdominal exploration was done, Exploring the Abdominal Cavity: ???? The surgical site was then closed using 3-0 PDS suture in a simple interrupted pattern for the first 2 layers. The last layer was closed with Prolene in a Ford Interlocking pattern, but the last 3 stitches were of cruciate pattern to allow for drainage or easy manipulation. All sutures were ended with Aberdeen knots except for the cruciate sutures., The viscera were kept moist with sterile saline to avoid abdominal adhesions. ???? The liver, kidneys, spleen and intestines were palpated., Exploring the Abdominal Cavity: ????
