SILK 5.0 braided non-absorbable silk suture.
Produced in Greece by Medipac
SILK 5.0 braided non-absorbable silk suture.
It can generally be used for the approximation, retention in contact and/or convergence of soft tissues but its use is not indicated for the tissues of the central cardiovascular and central nervous system.
Its application initially causes a small inflammatory reaction of the tissues, a characteristic reaction to a foreign body followed by the gradual creation of a connective tissue capsule around the suture.
Although silk sutures are not absorbable, they undergo gradual hydrolysis in vivo resulting in a complete loss of strength.
Available with needle:
