Description

ETHIBOND EXCEL™ Suture, green, size 2/0, 18", with FS needle, is a nonabsorbable, braided polyester suture designed for general soft tissue approximation and ligation. It is composed of polyethylene terephthalate fibers and coated with a polybutilate compound, which enhances suture performance by reducing friction during passage through tissue.

The FS needle is a reverse cutting type, specifically constructed for penetrating dense or fibrous tissues, such as skin or fascia. The 3/8 circle curvature supports smooth maneuverability through various tissue planes, enhancing accuracy and reducing trauma during placement.

The coating of ETHIBOND EXCEL is nonabsorbable and minimally reactive, allowing it to remain stable in the body for long-term applications. It serves as a lubricant, improving the mechanical properties of the suture and reducing fraying and tissue damage. This suture is widely used in cardiovascular, orthopedic, and general surgical procedures.
