About the quality of the surgical string
Introduced into surgical practice by Lister, catgut quickly became an integral part of surgical use, and it has not lost its significance to this day. Despite all the power of modern asepsis, surgery even now cannot do without absorbable material for sutures and ligatures, since non-absorbable material, being a foreign body, remaining in the body, can cause a long-lasting inflammatory process in the surrounding tissues. In practice, each surgeon has to observe patients with long-term non-healing fistulas formed as a result of expelling silk or thread ligatures.
