The strength of a suture material is important for a number of reasons, including the ability of the suture to withstand knotting and the imposed stress when used to bring soft tissues into apposition. Sutures of low strength will tend to break during surgery or, more seriously, postsurgery. In the

## Abstract Compared with braided multifilament sutures, absorbable monofilaments are attractive suture materials as they exhibit less tissue drag and cause less tearing because of their smooth surfaces. However, monofilament sutures are less flexible and more difficult to tie a knot than multifila
