  • Title: [Increased wound healing disorders in patients with inguinal hernia caused by administration of antithrombotic agents in the abdominal wall].
    Author: Lemke H, Imhoff M, Löhlein D.
    Journal: Chirurg; 1994 Aug; 65(8):714-6. PubMed ID: 7956538.
    Abstract:
    In a prospective, randomized study, including 108 patients, we investigated the effect of different locations for the subcutaneous injection of low dosed or low molecular heparin following standard herniotomia. In the group with injection into the contralateral abdominal wall the rate of local surgical complications was four times higher compared to those patients with injections into the thigh. Thus we conclude that after herniotomia low dosed or low molecular heparin should be applied into the subcutis of the thigh.
