Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the ultrasound biomicroscopic features of primary iridociliary cysts in patients at a Canadian healthcare center.
- A total of 189 patients, predominantly females aged 21-30, were evaluated, with the majority having cysts associated with the iris pigment epithelium.
- Follow-up showed that most cysts remained stable in size over time, indicating a low risk of complications.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare the tensile strength of slip knots with that of 3-1-1 knots using 10-0 nylon sutures.
Methods: In vitro, destructive materials testing was used. By adhering to the American Standard for Testing and Materials standards for testing of suture materials, slip knots were compared with 3-1-1 knots using 10-0 nylon suture material.
