Absorbable or nonabsorbable suture material for microsurgical tubal anastomosis. Randomized experimental study on
Gynecologic and Obstetric Investigation
|January 1, 1986
Abstract:
In 20 female rabbits the influence of absorbable and nonabsorbable suture material on microsurgical anastomosis of the oviduct was investigated. No significant superiority of polyglactin 910 over polypropylene could be demonstrated. Concerning histological reaction to the different suture materials as well as pregnancies (calculated by nidation indices) the results were comparable. The modern suture materials obviously do not influence the functional sequelae of microsurgical reanastomosis of the rabbit fallopian tube.
