Evaluation of a Monofile, Ultra-Long Absorbable Suture with High Elasticity for Abdominal Wall Closure Under Daily Clinical Routine MULTIMAC a Prospective Observational Study

Recent meta-analyses have shown that the application of a monofile, late-absorbable suture using a continuous suture technique with a suture-to-wound length ratio of at least 4:1 is the method of choice for the closure of midline laparotomies. Monomax, a new ultra-long term absorbable, high elastic monofilament suture, was approved in 2009 and its safety and efficacy were proven in a selected patient population under controlled conditions for...
