Description

Ethilon Monofilament Suture, Black, 4", Size 10/0, with a CS140-6 spatula needle is a nonabsorbable surgical suture made from a long-chain polymer. The monofilament construction provides excellent tensile strength and smooth passage through tissue, minimizing trauma during suturing. Its synthetic composition ensures durability and resistance to enzymatic degradation over time.

The suture is dyed black to enhance visibility within surgical fields, facilitating precise placement and ease of removal if necessary. The contrasting color aids surgeons in identifying the suture line against various tissue backgrounds, improving surgical accuracy and efficiency.

Ethilon sutures elicit minimal acute inflammatory response when implanted, reducing tissue irritation and promoting optimal wound healing. The biocompatible nature of the material supports prolonged implantation without significant adverse reactions. This characteristic makes Ethilon suitable for delicate and long-term tissue approximation.
