title: [Use of suture materials in gynecologic surgery].
abstract: This paper presents evolutionary development of suture materials in surgery from the "period of renaissance" to these days. Ideal suture materials in surgery should fulfil characteristic demands such as the four following: safety of knots, tension force, tissue reactions and wound safety. The table presents absorptive and nonabsorptive suture materials especially taking into consideration the application of the materials in contaminated-inflamed tissues. Recommendations in regard to choice of surgical suture materials are given considering gynecologic surgery.
