A modified Kessler suture with two 1–0 polydioxanone (Ethicon, Somerville, New Jersey, USA) sutures, was used to bring the tendon ends together. The paratenon and fascia cruris were then closed with 3–0 Vicryl (Ethicon, Somerville, New Jersey, USA) and the skin was sutured with 3–0 Ethilon (Ethicon, Somerville, New Jersey, USA). The same anesthetic and surgical techniques were used for all patient using a predefined study protocol.
1 0 polydioxanone
1–0 polydioxanone is a synthetic absorbable suture material. It is a monofilament suture made from the polymer polydioxanone. The core function of 1–0 polydioxanone is to provide temporary wound closure and support during the healing process.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
