“…The pathogenesis of a suture granuloma involves 2 steps; first, there is an initial reaction of the tissue which reflects the amount of injury which is inflicted by the passage of the needle and secondly, after the initial reaction subsides, the suture material causes a specific inflammatory reaction [8].…”

“…Further, they provided evidence of patient sensitization to virgin silk in bilateral surgical procedures; an allergic reaction developed against virgin silk following its use in the first eye procedure. The use of virgin silk during the 1960s to the early 1980s negatively impacted the general acceptance of this biomaterial from the surgical practitioner perspective [35][36][37]. For example, Morrow et al [38] observed silk and collagen (catgut) to be moderately more reactive than polyglycolic acid (PGA) in the genitourinary tract following 3 weeks of implantation in vivo, although again the type of silk used in the study was not identified.…”

“…Silk's knot strength, handling characteristics and ability to lay low to the tissue surface make it a popular suture in cardiovascular applications where bland tissue reactions are desirable for the coherence of the sutured structures [36]. However, black braided silk is thrombotic following implantation within ateriovessels [46,47].…”
