Senior Member Rachmunas4life Posted December 24, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted December 24, 2008 Do doctors recommend staples, sutures or dissovable sutures for strip surgery? Which is most effective? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member latinlotus Posted December 24, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted December 24, 2008 Some doctors prefer staples while other prefer suture. There are pros and cons for both. However, I don't think any doctor would recommend dissolvable suture unless if it is absolutely necessary, say because the patient is from out of town. Dissolvable sutures often create inflammation. ******** I am not a doctor. The opinions and comments are of my own.
