A comparative study of the performance of catgut and polyglecaprone 25 sutures in rat abdominal walls, contaminated or not

Abstract: Forty Wistar-Tecpar rats were used to determine the performance of polyglecaprone 25 sutures in the abdominal wall, contaminated or not. The animals were anesthetized and polyglecaprone 25 was implanted into the ventral abdominal wall on the left side and compared to the use of plain catgut implanted on the right. The subcutaneous tissue of 20 animals was contaminated with a standardized Staphylococcus aureus solution and the remaining 20 animals were not contaminated. The animals were checked on the third and… Show more

“…The 7 th postoperative day was chosen because it is around this period of time that occur most enterocutaneous fistulas. In 14 days high collagen rates happen almost similar to the ones in pre-operative period, and also in this period all complications that might exist, occur 10,13,14,15,17,21,33 .…”

“…They had the advantages of predictable absorption time with a mild inflammatory reaction. Afterwards, was produced a monofilament poliglecaprone 25 with advantages of absorption time be predictable and relatively short [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] . Other absorbable monofilament threads, as polydioxanone and poligliconate, require medium or long time for its absorption 12,21,22 .…”

“…O animal escolhido para este experimento foi o rato da linhagem Wistar, por ser de pequeno porte, de fácil aquisição, padronizado no que tange à idade, sexo, peso, alojamento, alimentação, cuidados de limpeza e manipulação experimental, além de ser resistente às infecções e considerado um bom modelo em suturas vesicais 12,13,14 . O grupo de animais apresentava homogeneidade na amostra e era oriundo no Biotério da Universidade Federal do Maranhão.…”

“…Neste estudo, utilizou-se a técnica de anestesia inalatória com éter sulfúrico, por ser amplamente utilizada em cirurgia experimental de ratos 13,14,15 . A seleção do material de sutura foi baseada no fato de que a sutura deve manter sua força tênsil até que a cicatrização ocorra, mas no trato urinário o fio deve ser totalmente absorvido evitando-se assim a formação de cálculos.…”
