Use of a Collagen Coated Vicryl Tube in Reconstruction of the Porcine Esophagus

European Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1991
This experimental study assessed the use of a collagen-coated vicryl mesh tube to reconstruct the esophagus in growing piglets. Initial experiments, in which a segment of thoracic esophagus was excised and replaced by this prosthetic tube, resulted in all the animals succumbing to mediastinitis within the first 3-4 days. This was shown, at post-mortem,

Genetic effects of Vicryl® on fibroblast primary culture.

Journal of biological regulators and homeostatic agents, 2017
Vicryl (R) (polyglactin 910) is an absorbable, synthetic, usually braided suture, indicated for soft tissue approximation and ligation. Vicryl (R) has a special coating for minimizing friction, easing passage through tissue and easy knot tie down. It is synthetic for minimal tissue reaction.

Vicryl Rapide^® Versus Vicryl^® Suture in Skin Closure of the Hand in Children: A Randomized Prospective Study

Journal of Hand Surgery, 2005
This randomized prospective clinical study compared the use of two absorbable sutures, Vicryl Rapide® versus Vicryl®, in elective paediatric hand surgery. Sixty children were randomly allocated into two groups (30 in each group) and all were seen and assessed at 3 and 6 weeks for wound complications and suture reactions.

Comparative efficacy of Prolene and Prolene-Vicryl composite mesh for experimental ventral hernia repair in dogs.

Iranian Journal of Veterinary Research, 2016
In this study, efficacy of two hernia mesh implants viz. conventional Prolene and a novel Prolene-Vicryl composite mesh was assessed for experimental ventral hernia repair in dogs. Twelve healthy mongrel dogs were selected and randomly divided into three

Collagen‐Vicryl scaffolds for reconstruction of the diaphragm in a large animal model

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials, 2013
AbstractCurrent methods for closure of congenital diaphragmatic hernia using patches are unsatisfactory, and novel collagen‐based scaffolds have been developed, and successfully applied in a rat model. However, for translation to the human situation constructs must be evaluated in larger animal models.

Conjunctival Closure in Strabismus Surgery: Vicryl Versus Fibrin Glue

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 1996
Abstract. Six patients undergoing bilateral symmetric strabismus surgery were enrolled in this study. For each subject, incisions were closed with Vicryl in one eye and glue in the other. The conjunctival closure with the Vicryl suture resulted in increased discomfort and inflammation during the early postoperative period compared with fibrin glue ...

VICRYL MESH FOR REPAIR OF SEVERELY INJURED KIDNEYS

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1993
We evaluated the efficacy of wrapping the kidney with semi-elastic Vicryl mesh for control of hemorrhage and preservation of renal function following grade III kidney lacerations (shattered kidney) in dogs in which nephrectomy was indicated clinically. Wrapping of fragmented kidneys resulted in prompt, sustained hemostasis and reapposition of the renal

Experimental Evaluation of a Collagen-coated Vicryl Mesh as a Dural Substitute

Neurosurgery, 1992
Dural substitutes must provide immediate restitution of a membranous covering for the brain without inducing any adverse reaction in the host or provoking adhesions to underlying nervous tissues. Ideally, the material should disappear completely and be replaced by tissues similar to the dura mater.

Internal fixation of lateral clavicle fractures with Vicryl tape

European Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery & Traumatology, 2002
Six consecutive Neer type II fractures of the lateral end of the clavicle were treated by indirect open reduction and internal fixation using Vicryl tape. All fractures healed within 6-8 weeks after the operation. The pre-injury level of function was restored in all cases.

Use of Vicryl Pads in Inguinal Hernia Repairs

2001
From the Bassini to the Shouldice, various techniques of differing viability have been developed to repair inguinal hernias, which are by nature prone to recurrence. These are the so-called pure tissue repairs, that is, they make use only of the often poor quality fascial and muscular tissue available in the groin.
