Description
The Ethilon Mono Black 4-0 18 PC3 suture is a nonabsorbable monofilament suture, designed to provide extended wound support. Composed of a long polymer chain, it offers exceptional strength and durability in surgical applications. The suture material resists absorption, ensuring long-term stability in tissues, making it suitable for use in both soft tissue approximation and ligation procedures.
The suture is dyed black or green to enhance visibility during surgical procedures, improving the precision of placement. The monofilament design reduces tissue drag and allows for smooth passage through tissues, minimizing trauma. Ethilon sutures are especially useful in situations where clear visualization is critical, such as delicate or fine surgeries.
A conventional cutting needle is used with Ethilon Mono Black 4-0 18 PC3 sutures. This needle type facilitates efficient penetration through tough tissue, ensuring precise suture placement while maintaining the integrity of the suture material. The cutting needle is ideal for procedures requiring sharp and controlled suture applications.
Ethilon sutures provoke minimal acute inflammatory responses, making them ideal for long-term use in sensitive areas. Over time, they undergo extremely slow encapsulation and degradation, which may take between one to two years, providing prolonged wound support in critical surgical procedures.
