A variety of suture materials are available for use in urologic surgery. Urologists have relied on absorbable suture materials which provide transient strength in anticipation that healing will occur before the suture is absorbed. Absorbable sutures thus decrease the chance of stone formation, known to occur on suture material in direct contact with the urinary stream. This report compares the breaking strength retention of polydioxanone (PDS) suture and chronic surgical gut after in vivo residence in the urinary bladder and subcutaneous tissue of the dog.
有多种缝合材料可用于泌尿外科手术。泌尿外科医生一直依赖可吸收缝合材料，这种材料能提供暂时的强度，以期在缝线被吸收前伤口已愈合。可吸收缝线因此降低了结石形成的几率，已知结石会在与尿流直接接触的缝合材料上形成。本报告比较了聚二氧六环酮（PDS）缝线和慢性外科肠线在犬膀胱和皮下组织内留置后的抗张强度保留情况。
