ABSTRACT
The work is devoted to assessment of bacterial contamination of trachea after circular resection with the following tracheo-tracheal anastomosis in Wistar rats. The formation of tracheo-tracheal anastomosis with the use of a monofilament, not resorptive suture material after circular resection of trachea is accompanied by the microbial growth in 83.4% of cases. The major microorganisms are conditionally pathogenic – Citrobacter freundii, Staphilococcus epidermidis, Proteus rettgeri, Escherichiae coli, they occur in 71% of cases. Pathogenic microorganisms Staphilococcus aureus, Candida fungi appeared only in microbial associations and were found in 12.5% of cases. No microbial growth was observed in 16.6%.
