Description
The Ethilon Mono Black 5-0 18" FS-2 Suture is a high-quality, nonabsorbable monofilament suture manufactured by Ethicon, designed for optimal performance in various surgical procedures. This suture is composed of a long polymer chain, providing excellent tensile strength and durability.
Ethilon sutures are uniquely dyed black or green to enhance visibility in tissue, facilitating clear visualization during surgical procedures. This feature is particularly beneficial in complex or deep surgical sites where differentiation between suture and tissue is crucial. The monofilament structure of Ethilon sutures results in a minimal acute inflammatory response from the tissue, contributing to a smoother healing process.
One of the key advantages of Ethilon sutures is their extremely slow encapsulation and degradation rate, which typically spans 1 to 2 years. This extended timeframe ensures sustained support and stability, making Ethilon sutures an excellent choice for long-term wound management and complex surgical interventions.
