Repair of Spinal Dural Defects with Vicryl (Polyglactin 910) Mesh

Journal of Spinal Disorders, 1989
This study examined and compared the effectiveness of woven vicryl (polyglactin 910) mesh and lyophilized cadaver dura (Lyodura) for the repair of spinal dural defects. A woven vicryl mesh was used to repair spinal dural defects in 16 mongrel dogs. As an internal control, all animals had a separate dural incision that was closed with 9-0 vicryl suture.

Ultrastructural observations of cells at the interface of a biodegradable polymer: Polyglactin 910

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research, 1983
AbstractTransmission electron microscopy was used to study the ultrastructure of cells at the interface with an implanted biodegradable polymer, Polyglactin 910. Various stages of implantation were observed from 1 day to 63 days, when absorption of the polymer was essentially complete.

Polyglactin 910/polydioxanone bicomponent totally resorbable vascular prostheses

Journal of Vascular Surgery, 1988
Previous studies from our laboratory have shown that bioresorbable vascular prostheses woven from lactide-glycolide copolymers and implanted into arteries of several animal models become replaced by cellular tissues; the rate of replacement parallels the kinetics of prosthetic resorption.

[Pelvic peritonization with a polyglactin 910 mesh].

Presse medicale (Paris, France : 1983), 1984
The authors, who have a long experience of polyglactin 910 mesh advocate its use for pelvic peritonization in two different situations and with two different techniques. The "lower controlled peritonization" technique aims at obtaining rapid and satisfactory healing of the peritoneum in wide resections or resections in high risk patients.

Irradiated polyglactin 910 for mucosal defects.

Cutis, 2008
The prolonged presence of superficial mucosal sutures or perineal sutures may cause irritation or discomfort and increase the risk of bacterial infections. Although absorbable sutures are commonly used in mucosal areas, many sutures have a prolonged half-life and might still require removal when used superficially.

Use of 7/0 Vicryl (coated polyglactin 910) and 7/0 Vicryl-rapide (irradiated polyglactin 910) in skin closure in ophthalmic plastic surgery

Orbit, 2002
To assess the safety and efficacy of 7/0 Vicryl and 7/0 Vicryl rapide sutures for skin closure, and without suture removal, in ophthalmic plastic surgery.A prospective, comparative study of 40 consecutive procedures in 32 patients. Tissue reactions to the sutures, completeness of wound healing, and number of sutures remaining were observed at first ...

The Use of Vicryl Mesh (Polyglactin 910) for Implantation of Hydroxyapatite Orbital Implants

Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 1995
Hydroxyapatite (HA) implants currently are most commonly wrapped in donor sclera before implantation to facilitate placement within the orbit and allow attachment of the extraocular muscles. Although the risk of acquiring a transmittable disease through donor sclera is extremely low, some individuals remain concerned about receiving nonautologous ...

Experiences with polyglactin 910 (Vicryl) in general surgery.

Acta chirurgica Scandinavica, 1978
The physical properties of polyglactin 910 (Vicryl) have been studied experimentally and clinically and compared with other synthetic and natural suture materials. Polyglactin 910 has a relatively high fluid absorption capacity but a low capillary capacity.

The use of vicryl (polyglactin 910) sutures in colonic and rectal surgery

Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1977
Vicryl suture has proved to be an excellent material for intestinal surgery. It performed well in 40 surgical procedures involving the small bowel, colon and rectum. It is particularly suitable for use in the presence of contamination or infection, since its rate of absorption is unaffected by the presence of inflammatory cells, in contradistinction to
