Abstract
PURPOSE: To study the tensile strength of the abdominal wall following laparotomy synthesis utilizing three types of surgical wires. METHODS: Thirty Wistar rats were randomized into three groups of ten rats each. Each group underwent a 3cm-laparotomy which was closed with 3-0 polyglactin 910, polyglecrapone and catgut wires. After 63 days, euthanasia was performed and part of the abdominal wall was removed with which a strip was produced measuring 2.0 cm in length by 6.0 cm in width comprising the abdominal muscles with the implanted mesh. The sample was fixed in a mechanical test machine in which constant force was applied contrary to the tissue strips. Maximum force was considered, expressed in Newton, until full rupture of the tissue occurred. The non-parametrical Kruskal - Wallis test was used for the statistical analysis, admitting p<0.05. RESULTS: The average strength of the catgut group was slightly lower (33.50 N) than that of the polyglactin group (34.23 N), the difference not being statistically significant (p=0.733). The polyglecaprone group was the one which presented the lowest strength value of all three wires analyzed (29.86 N). No statistical difference was obtained when comparing the strength values of the polyglecaprone group and the catgut group (p=0.06 ). However, when the polyglecaprone group was compared to the polyglactin 910 group no statistical difference was obtained (p=0.029). CONCLUSION: The polyglactin wire presented the highest tensile strength among the three wires analyzed, such value being statistically significant when polyglactin was compared to the polyglecaprone wire.
OBJETIVO: Estudar a resistência tênsil da parede abdominal após síntese de laparotomia utilizando três tipos de fios cirúrgicos. MÉTODOS: Trinta ratos da linhagem Wistar randomizados em três grupos de dez exemplares cada um. Em cada grupo fez-se uma laparotomia de dois centímetros que foi fechada com fios 3-0 de poliglactina 910, poliglecaprone e categute. Após 63 dias, foi feita a eutanásia e retirou-se uma área da parede abdominal com a qual fez-se uma tira medindo 2,0 cm de comprimento por 6,0 cm de largura englobando os músculos abdominais com a tela implantada. A amostra foi fixada em máquina de ensaios mecânicos na qual se aplicou força constante contrária às tiras de tecido. Foi considerada a força máxima expressa em Newton até ocorrer a ruptura total da amostra. Para a análise estatística, utilizou-se teste não paramétrico de Kruskal - Wallis admitindo-se p<0,05. RESULTADOS: A média de resistência do grupo categute foi ligeiramente menor (33.50 N) ao da poliglactina (34.23 N), sendo essa diferença não estatisticamente significativa (p=0,733). O grupo poliglecaprone foi o que apresentou menor resistência entre os três fios analisados (29.86 N). Comparando as resistências do grupo poliglecaprone ao grupo categute não se obteve significância estatística (p=0,06). Entretanto quando o grupo poliglecaprone foi comparado à poliglactina 910 houve significância estatística (p=0,029). CONCLUSÃO: O fio de poliglactina apresentou a maior resistência tênsil dentre os três fios analisados, sendo esta estatisticamente significativa quando comparado ao fio de poliglecaprone.
