Urolithiasis on Absorbable and Non-Absorbable Suture materials in the Rabbit Bladder

Abstract: Absorbable and non-absorbable suture materials were evaluated for calculi formation and tissue reactivity in the rabbit bladder. Five-O chromic, polydioxinone and polypropylene sutures were used to close cystostomies made in New Zealand white rabbits. Bladders were evaluated at 15, 30, 60 and 90 days. Calculi formed on all sutures tested and the persistence of calculi appeared to be dependent on the longevity of the suture material used. This data suggests that the use of non-absorbable suture material in urol… Show more

“…Provavelmente as alterações urinárias constatadas neste estudo devem-se tanto ao emprego de implante, quanto ao do fio de sutura, materiais estranhos ao tecido vesical, que, além de ocasionarem alterações na parede da bexiga, serviram de base para a agregação e formação de cálculos (MORRIS et al, 1986). Outro possível fator para essa ocorrência relaciona-se ao tipo de dieta oferecida aos animais, pois as rações comerciais para coelhos são alcalinas, elevando o pH urinário e favorecendo a cristalúria (KIWULL-SCHÖNE et al, 2005).…”

“…However, maybe the lithogenic potential could be related to the capacity of the applied material induce inflammatory reaction and some studies were made using absorbable and non-absorbable sutures (17). In our experiment, we used materials that were absorbed after a significant amount of time, and there was a significant difference between the median weight of the bladders that received BPCA grafts and that were harvested after 4 weeks and after 8 weeks, when the inflammatory response was lower.…”

“…Suture materials in the genitourinary tract are foreign bodies which attract both calcification and crystallization germs via direct contact with urine in relation to the time factor, thus hazarding the success of surgical intervention by lithogenesis, obstruction of the ducts and/or secondary infections [1][2][3][4][5][6][7],…”
