An experimental study was performed comparing 6-0 polypropylene and 6-0 polyglycolic acid sutures in vasovasostomy. An indwelling entirely intraluminal splint of PE-10 tubing was used which was surgically removed three weeks postoperatively. Three months after vasovasostomy patency was determined by vasography. Eighty-five per cent patency was achieved with polyglycolic acid compared with 58 per cent patency when polypropylene was used.
进行了一项实验研究，比较6-0聚丙烯缝线和6-0聚乙醇酸缝线在输精管吻合术中的应用。使用了一段留置在管腔内的PE-10导管作为支撑物，术后三周通过手术将其取出。输精管吻合术后三个月，通过血管造影确定通畅情况。使用聚乙醇酸时通畅率达到85%，而使用聚丙烯时通畅率为58%。
