sodium salt dexon (fungicide)

02/01/1979 - "With respect to handling, knotting, tissue drag, absorption, and postoperative complications, the improved Dexon suture was found to be well suited for use in cataract surgery."
09/01/1980 - "Further evaluation of DEXON suture for cataract surgery: a study using 9-0 monofilament suture."
09/01/1977 - "Evaluation of DEXON suture in cataract surgery: a study using a finer gauge material."
02/01/1979 - "Late complications of 7-0 polyglycolic (Dexon) sutures in cataract surgery."
01/01/1978 - "Dexon was used as suture material in 26 cases of cataract surgery and in 46 cases of extraocular muscle surgery. "

12/01/1980 - "In 61 consecutive cataract operations sutured with Dexon 8-0 there were filtration blebs in 24 (39,3%) eyes, and in 51 consecutive cataract operations sutured with Dexon 7-0 there were filtration blebs in 11 (21,6%), eyes. "
12/01/1980 - "Filtration blebs in corneoscleral wounds sutured with Dexon 7-0 and Dexon 8-0."
09/01/1994 - "The base of bulla was pleuralised by suturing the edges of the removed cyst with running suture of 3-0 Dexon. "
01/01/2001 - "Combined uses of fibrin glue plus DEXON mesh or GRFG glue were effective when bullae were treated with the Ho:YAG laser. "
02/01/1979 - "In 37 eyes of the 7-0 Dexon group filtrating blebs, gaping of the corneoscleral wound, anterior chamber collapse, or decrease in the intraocular pressure were observed compared with one filtrating bleb in the 9-0 nylon group. "

01/01/1976 - "Dexon is superior to unabsorbable material as suture granulomas were not seen when Dexon was employed."
01/01/1976 - "It is concluced that the use of polyglycolic acid (Dexon) nearly eliminates the risk of suture-granulomas, without increasing the risk of wound dehiscences; on the contrary, the rate of dehiscences was lower after polyglycolic acid."
01/01/1976 - "It was therefore investigated whether the use of polyglycolic acid (Dexon) instead of silk for fascial closure of abdominal incisions would reduce the rate of granulomas without an accompanying increase in rate of wound dehiscences. "

07/01/1989 - "Furthermore, development of absorbable suture material like Dexon and Vicryl benefited by minimizing granulation stenosis at anastomosis due to less foreign body reaction. "
