Hi I came across this article from Dignity health about sutures. I’m wondering now if late absorbable and non absorbable mean the same thing? It states the non absorbable dissolve about 300 days and that’s how I understood the late term absorbable to do. https://www.dignityhealth.org/conditions-and-treatments/emergency/stitches

Hi what would you say the best non absorbable suture is that may have the least foreign body reaction?

Hi I have been worried about recurrence with dissolving sutures but my surgeon thinks I should be ok since I’m slim…I think this article is interesting to… https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2702909/

Hi I just read your experience from 5 years ago on your hernia repair and was curious how it’s doing since you mentioned they used absorbable sutures. I am going to get my hernia repaired soon with non mesh and absorbable sutures as well.

I would just call around in your area, that’s what I did and found a general surgeon with 30 years experience has good reviews and can do tissue repair..

The body starts to make scar tissue right away which is good but regardless my surgeon suggested the long term absorbable sutures they dissolve in about a year.

Thanks for sharing! That’s good to know your Dr used absorbable sutures. Dr kang % results before his switch was still really good…I’ve been reading about absorbable vs non absorbable and they say that after awhile the non Absorbing sutures start to loose there strength as the scar tissue forms and encloses around and over the suture so it’s the scar tissue that takes over and creates strength. The body does the same thing with the absorbable but the absorbable eventually leave and the scar tissue is there holding everything together. But in some cases people may need the non absorbable to give 2 layer strength if scar tissue is likely to tear (people that do a lot of heavy lifting, weight etc.) …So they can both work very well in the right situations from what I’m reading.

Hi I was wondering if you got permanent sutures in your tissue repair or all dissolvable sutures? I’m scheduled to have my femoral hernia repaired in October by pure tissue and asked the surgeon if I can get dissolvable sutures and he said yes he has some that will dissolve in a year and he said that will give enough time to bond all together.
