Sutures for inguinal herniorrhaphy--a comparison of monofilaments with PTFE.

J Cahill1, A D Northeast, P E Jarret, R D Leach.   

Abstract

Polybutester (Novafil, Davis & Geck) and expanded polytetrafluoroethylene PTFE (Gore-tex, W L Gore) were compared with nylon (Ethilon, Ethicon UK) for elective inguinal herniorrhaphy. PTFE had the best handling characteristics, but is expensive, and increased wound sepsis attended its use. Polybutester had significantly better handling characteristics, and is an attractive alternative to nylon for hernia repair.
