Description

Ethilon Monofilament Suture is a nonabsorbable surgical thread composed of a long polymer chain, designed for durable tissue approximation and ligation. Its monofilament structure provides smooth passage through tissue, reducing trauma and minimizing tissue drag during suturing. The suture material exhibits high tensile strength, maintaining wound support over an extended period.

The suture is dyed black to enhance visibility against various tissue types, aiding surgeons in precise placement and knot tying. The coloration facilitates easier identification during surgical procedures, improving overall efficiency and safety. Ethilon sutures are available in multiple sizes and lengths, tailored to meet the needs of different surgical applications.

Ethilon’s conventional cutting needle, designated as PC-12, is engineered to provide optimal penetration with minimal tissue damage. The needle’s design promotes precise control and handling, facilitating consistent performance in a range of soft tissue surgeries. The combination of the monofilament suture with the cutting needle supports effective wound closure with reduced trauma.
