Caprosyn suture’s quick absorption, durable polymer material and monofilament construction provides smooth passage through tissue, better approximation or ligation, and minimized potentiation of infection
Indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, but not for use in cardiovascular or neurological surgery, microsurgery, or ophthalmic surgery
Complete mass absorption in approximately 56 days
Monofilament surface of Caprosyn™ results in less tissue drag than the twisted surface of Gut sutures
