Table 2.

Postoperative complications in interrupted and running suture techniques in both vicryl and polypropylene groupsa

Running suture Interrupted suture
Vicryl group (n=34) 5 patients had milia (15%) 2 patients had milia (6%)
2 patients had wound dehiscence (6%) 3 patients had wound dehiscence (9%)
Polypropylene 6 patients had milia (13%) 4 patients had milia (9%)
group (n=46) 4 patients had wound dehiscence (9%) 4 patients had wound dehiscence (9%)
2 patients had an infection (6%)

aAs one eye of each patient is running sutured and the other eye is interrupted sutured, it has the same value as the number of people in both groups.
