摘要
The in vivo breakdown of collagen-vicryl composites (types 9 and 12) was followed in rabbit ear chambers over a period of 5 weeks. In this time the implants were incorporated into the granulation tissue growing in the chambers. Materials that were sterilized by gamma irradiation were resorbed faster than those sterilized with ethylene oxide or disinfected with alcohol, which suggests that irradiation weakened the material. Histological observation revealed that the collagen component had disappeared from all the composites by day 35 and the surrounding tissue showed a mild foreign-body reaction.
