Closure of elective abdominal incisions with monofilament, non-absorbable suture material versus polyfilament absorbable suture material.
BACKGROUND Closure of abdominal incisions with different suture materials has been a matter of great controversy. Polypropylene and Polylactide with Polyglycolide are among the commonest suture materials used for closure of abdominal incisions. Objectives of this study were to assess optimal suture material used for closure of elective abdominal incisions and to see complications associated wit...
متن کاملProlene monofilament suture in Boston Keratoprosthesis surgery.
Toxic reaction to nylon following uncomplicated cataract surgery and vitrectomy has been documented in the literature. We report the case of an aniridic patient with a known adverse reaction to nylon in whom Prolene suture was used in Boston Keratoprosthesis type 1 (KPro) surgery. During follow-up the cornea was checked for signs of inflammation and toxic reaction; at last follow-up (18 months)...
متن کاملScanning electron microscopic study of monofilament suture knots.
AIMS/BACKGROUND Interrupted corneal sutures are used routinely by many cataract and corneal surgeons. A slim compact knot facilitates burial and allows atraumatic suture removal, with decreased risk of wound dehiscence. The size and morphology of knots tied in different configurations were investigated. METHODS 10-0 nylon suture material was used to tie knots on porcine corneal cataract secti...
متن کاملExperimental evaluation of horse hair as a nonabsorbable monofilament suture
BACKGROUND Success of surgery depends on wound closure and healing. Ancients had coated many suture materials from plant and animal origin. As the quest for natural nonabsorbable, monofilament surgical suture continues, horsehair has been taken for study, which is mentioned in ancient literature. OBJECTIVES Aim of the study was to evaluate detail mechanical and biophysical properties of horse...
متن کاملAdverse ocular reactions to drugs.
Drugs acting on various parts of the body may also affect the eye insidiously. Increased awareness of such drug toxicity by the prescribing doctor should encourage him to consider effects on the cornea, lens, retina, optic nerve and elsewhere when checking the patient's progress. The following review concerns adverse ocular effects of systemic drug administration.
