Inflammatory reaction to suture materials after flexor tendon repair. A retrospective study of 594 patients

We report granuloma formation after using FiberWire(®) for flexor tendon repairs. Four subcutaneous granulomas were identified in 115 patients with FiberWire(®) core sutures, none in 426 with braided polyester. Foreign body reactions were found in the granuloma cases. We suggest early suture removal...
