A human orifices is defined as any opening on a human body where an organ is present. These organs are commonly known as internal orifices. It has been a longstanding debate between surgeons and physicians on whether an open or closed system is better than the other for surgical operations.
In an open system, the organs are not enclosed by a closed orifice. There is no need for an external flap or suture to be placed in front of the orifice as in a closed system. This creates a smooth opening which allows the surgeon to perform a more complete operation on the organ without damaging the tissue. In addition, with an open system, there is less chance of infection and other complications as it is much easier for them to access the organ.
For closed systems, a suture is needed to secure a closed orifice. Once the flap is closed, a suture can be placed over the opening and then an incision is made around the orifice and the organ is placed inside the sutures. This type of system requires the surgeon to make an incision from the neck or behind the ear up to the groin area of the patient.
The downside of this type of operation is that there is a possibility that the organ can be partially or completely exposed to the surrounding tissue once the sutures have been inserted. Because of this risk, it is recommended that a second surgical procedure will be required for patients who have exposed or partially exposed organ.
For some patients, an open system may be more appropriate. It is more difficult to insert the sutures into the opening. However, once the sutures are placed, they are much more comfortable for the surgeon to perform the surgery on. Patients that have this type of system do not have to worry about exposing their organ to the surrounding tissue as the sutures are completely enclosed.
While the advantages of an open system have many advantages, one drawback is that the organ must be exposed to the tissue of the sutures to ensure that it is exposed and not exposed to the surrounding tissue after the procedure. This can be a problem for patients with small organ or that are very close to their body. Another disadvantage is that if the organ is exposed to the tissue, it can be damaged during the recovery process due to the presence of infection. fluids that can enter the abdominal cavity. Even though some surgeons prefer this system, many others still favor closed system due to its greater safety and ability to perform more intricate surgeries.
