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

Physical and Functional Comparison of Coated VICRYL* Plus Antibacterial Suture (Coated Polyglactin 910 Suture with Triclosan) with Coated VICRYL* Suture (Coated Polyglactin 910 Suture)

Surgical Infections, 2002
The goal of this study was to compare the physical and functional properties of coated polyglactin 910 suture with and without triclosan by human assessment and instrument-based measurements.Surgeons specializing in general, orthopedic, plastic, or gynecologic surgery evaluated the suture materials in an in vivo porcine model with regard to (1) ease of

Comparaison Polyglactine 910 simple (Vicryl®) versus Polyglactine 910 irradié (Vicryl rapide®) en suture muqueuse après avulsion des dents de sagesse

Revue de Stomatologie, de Chirurgie Maxillo-faciale et de Chirurgie Orale, 2013
Summary Introduction Two different types of suture are used in our unit after wisdom tooth extraction, Polyglactin 910 [PGS] (Vicryl ® , Ethicon) and rapid absorption irradiated Polyglactin 910 [PGI]. No objective comparative study was available so we decided to conduct a preliminary prospective study to check if there was any difference between ...

Vicryl (polyglactin 910) mesh as a dural substitute in the presence of pia arachnoid injury

Journal of Neurosurgery, 1989
✓ Previously presented data showed that Vicryl mesh was a potentially effective dural grafting material. It is easily handled, relatively inexpensive, absorbed over time, and elicits a minimal inflammatory response. The present experimental project was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of a tightly woven version of the material as a watertight

A comparative study of polydioxanone (PDS®) and polyglactin 910 (Vicryl®) in colonic anastomoses in rats

International Journal of Colorectal Disease, 1989
The use of polyglactin 910 (Vicryl) in colonic anastomoses is theoretically undesirable because its short dissolution time and multifilament structure may lead to local sepsis and anastomotic leakage. We have compared Vicryl with a newly introduced monofilament absorbable suture which has a longer dissolution time than Vicryl.

Irradiated Polyglactin 910 (Vicryl Rapide) for Placement of Full-Thickness Skin Grafts

Dermatologic Surgery, 2005
The "unsuture" technique originally reported with the use of fast-absorbing gut for the placement of full-thickness skin grafts has provided years of successful full-thickness graft placement without the need for suture removal.The objective was to explore another option for successful graft placement and survival using irradiated polyglactin 910 ...

Butala technique

Current Orthopaedic Practice, 2016
The patella is made up of dense spongy bone covered by a thin lamina. It is divided into anterior and posterior surfaces. The anterior surface has upper, middle, and lower parts. The upper part serves as an attachment for the quadriceps tendon, the middle is made up of vascular canaliculi, and the lower serves as an origin for the patellar ligament ...

Effect of Bipolar Cautery on Tensile Strength of 6-0 Polyglactin 910 Suture

Journal of Pediatric Ophthalmology & Strabismus, 2000
ABSTRACT Purpose: To determine the effect of bipolar cautery on 6-0 polyglactin 910 suture. Methods: Three groups of sutures were tested for maximum tensile strength. The first group (direct cautery) had bipolar cautery applied directly to the suture.

Use of vicryl (polyglactin 910) sutures in general surgical and cardiothoracic procedures

The American Journal of Surgery, 1977
The satisfactory substitute for catgut suture, Vicryl (polyglactin 910) suture, was used in fifty-three patients who underwent general and thoracic surgical procedures. Theoretical advantages of increased strength, controlled absorption by slow depolymerization and dissolution, and superior handling characteristics were confirmed.
