Nonsurgical Rhinoplasty With Polydioxanone Threads and Fillers

Dermatologic Surgery, 2020
BACKGROUND Absorbable wedge-shaped polydioxanone (PDO) sutures are currently available for facial rejuvenation, and they are extremely popular in the aesthetic clinics in Korea. Other than face lifting, threads also can be used for nonsurgical rhinoplasty.

Reconstruction of orbital floor with polydioxanone plate

International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1991
The use of a polydioxanone (PDS) plate for orbital reconstruction was evaluated in 20 patients with various traumatic defects of the orbital floor. The follow-up time was 9 to 45 months (mean 20.4 months). A CT scan was obtained in 13 patients.

Lipase Mediated Enzymatic Degradation of Polydioxanone in Solution

Polymer Degradation and Stability, 2014
The enzymatic biodegradation of polydioxanone (PDO) in trifluoroethanol (TFE) at various temperatures (25-55 degrees C) was studied with two different types of lipases, namely immobilized enzyme Novozym 435 and free enzyme porcine pancreas lipase.

Closure of Abdominal Wounds With Polydioxanone

Archives of Surgery, 1988
Polydioxanone, an absorbable synthetic monofilament suture, was used to close abdominal wounds in 200 consecutive operative procedures. All patients were followed up for one year. Despite a high incidence of risk factors for impaired wound healing, the incidence of dehiscence and evisceration was zero; incisional hernia occurred in 2.9% of vertical ...

Integrity of polydioxanone sutures: A case report

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 1986
Certain conditions have been found to hasten the breakdown of absorbable PDS (polydioxanone) sutures. It is important that surgeons handle the sutures carefully to avoid premature breakdown.

Polydioxanone Biodegradable Pins in the Knee

American Journal of Roentgenology, 2001
Biodegradable solid implants have been developed as an alternative to metallic orthopedic fixation. In animal models, implants degrade within and are replaced by bone. This study documents the resorption of these devices in human patients with MR imaging.One hundred seventy-five 1.3-mm biodegradable pins made of polydioxanone were used to secure a ...

Extracorporal septal reconstruction with polydioxanone foil

Clinical Otolaryngology, 2007
Key points Conventional septoplasty cannot be the answer to all types of septal deviation. Indications of extracorporal septal reconstruction with polydioxanone (PDS) foil: (i) selected cases of very high septal deviations, (ii) post‐traumatic and (iii) extremely pronounced congenital septal deviations and/or aesthetic deformities.

Sutureless Vascular Anastomoses by Polydioxanone Connector

Vascular Surgery, 1995
Usually a single end-to-end anastomosis on a middle-size vessel cannot be performed in less than twenty minutes with either separate or continuous suture technique. For easy and quick anastomoses the authors studied 12 dogs with a sutureless concept.

Vascular Network Formation on Macroporous Polydioxanone Scaffolds

Tissue Engineering Part A, 2021
In this study, microvascular network structures for tissue engineering were generated on newly developed macroporous polydioxanone (PDO) scaffolds. PDO represents a polymer biodegradable within months and offers optimal material properties such as elasticity and nontoxic degradation products. PDO scaffolds prepared by porogen leaching and cryo-dried to

Reconstruction of the Nasal Septum Using Polydioxanone Plate

Archives of Facial Plastic Surgery, 2010
To evaluate the usefulness of resorbable polydioxanone plate attached to nasal septal cartilage in external septoplasty, to assess its mechanical stability until healing of cartilage fragments, and to describe the surgical technique and clinical experience.External septoplasty with polydioxanone plate has been performed in 396 patients since 1996 ...
