Novel mesh suture may resist bone cutting seen with wire-based sternal closuresCentral MessagePerspective

Objective: Sternal dehiscence is frequently associated with wire-based closures cutting through fragile bone, allowing sternal motion, separation, and infection. We investigated whether bone cutting could be limited by using a newly available mesh suture with improved force distribution. Methods: Fi...
