Description
Suture, Silk Braided Black 3-0 18 PS2 is a sterile, nonabsorbable surgical thread crafted from natural silk fibers. Derived from the domestic silkworm Bombyx mori, silk retains its historical significance in surgery due to its biocompatibility and smooth handling properties. The braided structure of this suture enhances its tensile strength and knot security, making it suitable for various surgical procedures where strong, reliable closure is essential.
The black color of the silk suture aids in visibility during surgery, facilitating precise placement and knot tying. The 3-0 size and 18-inch length, paired with the PS2 needle, offer versatility for delicate surgeries requiring fine suturing. The PS2 needle, with its precision cutting edge and half-circle shape, allows for efficient tissue penetration and minimizes tissue trauma.
Silk Braided Black 3-0 18 PS2 is particularly effective in ophthalmic, plastic, and general soft tissue approximation and ligation procedures. In ophthalmic surgery, where delicacy and precision are critical, the smooth passage and handling of silk contribute to favorable surgical outcomes. Similarly, in plastic surgery, the suture's ability to hold knots securely without slipping supports optimal wound closure and aesthetic results.
