Ocular Injury Secondary to Periorbital Use of Stainless-Steel Wire and Suture

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1994
To describe previously unreported ocular injuries from stainless-steel wire or suture used for facial skeletal or soft-tissue repair.Three patients who underwent orbital reconstruction (n = 2) or ptosis repair with excision of the orbiculus oculi (n = 1) were referred with signs and symptoms of ocular injury.Removal of the wires and sutures.Treatment ...

LIGATURES AND SUTURES OF ALLOY STEEL WIRE

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1934
From its resistance to chemical change, modern alloy steel has been called the new noble metal. Soft or annealed stainless steel wire has marked tensile strength, stretches over one third of its length before breaking, and has such resistance to corrosion that when buried in the tissues for prolonged periods of time it remains untarnished and does not ...

Stainless steel as suturing material in human- and rabbit corneas: A SEM-study

Documenta Ophthalmologica, 1988
Stainless steel wire, dia. 50 microns, was used as suturing material in rabbit corneas for periods of 1.5, 3 and 7 months respectively, in order to test its inertness and acceptance by the corneal tissue. One clinical case of stainless steel wire used for fixation of an I.O.L.-implantation, after a 5-year residence in the eye, is reported as well ...

Use of Fine Alloy Steel Wire Sutures in Ophthalmic Surgery

A.M.A. Archives of Ophthalmology, 1955
Following the introduction by Babcock 1 of fine alloy steel wire as suture material in general surgery in 1934, there has been increasing acclaim of its many advantages. 2 It was found by carefully controlled studies that wire sutures produced the least amount of tissue reaction and promoted the most rapid healing of wounds. This effect was noted on or

Assessment of MRI safety issues for stainless steel sutures used for microtia reconstruction

Journal of Plastic, Reconstructive & Aesthetic Surgery, 2018
Potential magnetic resonance imaging issues for stainless steel sutures used for microtia reconstruction could be clinically significant for safety and diagnostic yield considerations. Therefore, the purpose of this investigation was to assess magnetic resonance issues (magnetic field interactions, heating, and artifacts) for different types of ...

Multifilament Stainless Steel as a Core Suture Material in Flexor Tendon Repair

ASME 2010 Summer Bioengineering Conference, Parts A and B, 2010
Over the past decades flexor tendons have been repaired using many repair configurations and suture types. The result of the repair depends on the method of attachment of the suture to the tendon(1), as well as the characteristics of the suture material (2).

Median sternotomy: Comparative testing of braided superelastic and monofilament stainless steel sternal sutures

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine, 2008
A new device to reduce the risk of post-operative complications following median sternotomy is proposed, made of a superelastic shape memory alloy and called a braided tubular superelastic (BTS) suture. This study compares the viability of the BTS suture with that of the standard monofilament stainless steel (MSS) suture.

One layer end-on intestinal anastomoses using fine monofilament steel sutures

The American Journal of Surgery, 1969
Abstract A modification of the single layer anastomosis in the gastrointestinal tract is presented, using fine monofilament steel wire sutures. This method is advised only in special situations in which the standard two layer closure is difficult to perform.

CATARACT SECTION ACROSS TEMPORARY STAINLESS-STEEL SUTURES.

Canadian Medical Association journal, 1996
The purpose of the technique described was to combine the advantages of a cleanedged Graefe-knife incision with those of safety and near-perfect apposition offered by preplaced sutures: a preliminary to cataract extraction. Uncuttable preplaced 2-mm. stainless steel sutures were finally replaced after completion of the incision by attached braided silk
