Abstract
Our study suggests three suitable combinations of suture materials and methods for suture knot formation, depending on the site of surgery, that provide optimum treatment outcomes. Surgilon provides the most stable strength for general suture techniques. FiberWire is the strongest suture material for a site where a large number of throws is clinically possible. PDS II provides a strong suture when combined with cyanoacrylate reinforcement.
