Product description

This PROLENE Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Microsurgical Suture, product code W1711, is engineered for highly delicate surgical procedures requiring exceptional precision and long-term tensile stability. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE ensures smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and durable wound support.

The USP 10-0 diameter is intended for ultra-fine microsurgical and ophthalmic applications where meticulous handling and minimal tissue trauma are essential. The shorter 23 cm strand length allows precise control within confined operative fields.

This suture is unidirectional and fitted with a TG140-8 reverse spatula needle (6.5 mm). The reverse spatula configuration is specifically designed for corneal and anterior segment procedures, enabling controlled lamellar passage and reducing the risk of unintended tissue penetration. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this product is intended for professional microsurgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable closure.
