[Microsurgical nerve and blood vessel sutures with resorbable suture material].
An experimental study of the behavior of the absorbable suture Polyglactin 910 (Vicryl) 0,2 metric in the tissue was performed. Microsurgical sutures of nerves and vessels (sciatic nerve and carotid artery) were performed and compared with a non-absorbable suture (Ethilon). The micromorphological studies included a period of 12 weeks after surgery. The absorbable suture showed equal mechanical qualities, with the advantage that the suture material and the tissue reaction disappeared after the 10th week, while the poor visualization of the absorbable suture under the operating microscope was a disadvantage.
