| pubmed-article:1659675 | pubmed:abstractText | Modern technology has recently provided us with new resorbable suture material for use also in vascular surgery. Clinical use of these sutures has been impeded however by not little mistrust and by old dogmas without a rational experimental basis. We have therefore begun studies of two slowly resorbable materials, polyglactin 910 and polyglycolic acid, in comparison with two classic nonreabsorbable materials, nylon and polypropylene, used in experimental model of end-to-end anastomosis rats'infrarenal aorta, following up the healing process and its evolution after an interval. The results are discussed in relation to data collected from current literature. | lld:pubmed |
