Polyglactin 910 versus irradiated polyglactin 910 for subcuticular closure in elective surgeries: a randomized double-blind study

International Surgery Journal, 2020
Background: All suture materials are treated as foreign bodies and bring out a reaction in the tissues. The severity and duration of response depends on the type of suture material used. The choice of suture material is based on the concept that it should provide adequate tensile strength across the wound until tissue tensile strength has adequately ...
