[Blood vessel wall regeneration in the use of a new monofilament, resorbable suture material for arterial anastomoses]. 1984

T Schmitz-Rixen, and S Horsch, and B Klein, and H Pichlmaier

A new synthetic, absorbable suture has been tested on 15 mongrel dogs. A total of 132 simple end-to-end anastomoses has been performed in common carotid, iliac and femoral arteries and the aorta abdominalis with monofilament, absorbable polydioxanon. Aneurysms or infections did not occur. The patency rate up to 250 days was 98.5%. All vessels were studied by angiography and light- or electron-microscopy. The new monofilament suture material is characterized by extended absorption time and low foreign body reaction. It leads more rapidly to the restitution of the vascular wall than nonabsorbable sutures.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008855 Microscopy, Electron, Scanning Microscopy in which the object is examined directly by an electron beam scanning the specimen point-by-point. The image is constructed by detecting the products of specimen interactions that are projected above the plane of the sample, such as backscattered electrons. Although SCANNING TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY also scans the specimen point by point with the electron beam, the image is constructed by detecting the electrons, or their interaction products that are transmitted through the sample plane, so that is a form of TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY.
