title: [Experimental morphological study of oktselon as a resorbable suture material in ophthalmic surgery].
abstract: Tissue reaction of the eye ball and its adnexa on a home-made synthetic resolving suture material oktselon was studied in experiment on 50 rabbit eyes. It was established that oktselon provides firm scarring of all tissues; its resorption begins by the 20th-30th day and is accompanied by macrophagal reaction, and 6 months later the thread is practically fully replaced by the conjunctival tissue. A long-term stay of sutures in different tissues is practically, areactive, is accompanied by no vascular reaction, necrosis or tissue suppuration. The oktselon threads possess a wide spectrum of indications to their usage and may be recommended for use in ophthalmic surgery.
