Detail
Polyester sutures are nonabsorbable, sterile, surgical sutures composed of polyethylene. The sutures are available uncoated or coated uniformly with silicone to increase surface lubricity, thereby enhancing handling characteristics, ease of passage through tissue, and knot run-down properties. The sutures are indicated for use in general soft issue approximation and/or ligation, including use in cardiovascular, ophthalmic and neurological surgery.
