Trulon

Monofilament Polyamide (Nylon) Sterile Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture

Features of Trulon

Low tissue reactivity
High tensile strength
Excellent elasticity and handling
Smooth texture for minimal tissue trauma

This suture is indicated for skin closure, and in surgical procedures where a combination of a non-absorbable suture and long term wound support (except where permanent retention of tensile strength is required) is required for soft tissue approximation and/or ligation. It elicits a minimal initial inflammatory reaction in tissue which is followed by gradual encapsulation of suture by fibrous connective tissue. While this suture is not absorbed, progressive hydrolysis of suture in vivo may result in gradual loss of tensile strength over a period of time.
