Surgical sutures P.G.A (Polyglycolic acid) with absorbable thread, braided and coated, violet color. Their length is 75cm with inverted needle 50mm 2 - 1/2 of the circle.
P.G.A surgical synthetic sutures are suitable for use in soft tissue contraction and ligation, including use in ocular cases, not recommended for use in cardiovascular and neurological cases.
Implantation of the absorbable synthetic suture causes a minimal inflammatory reaction which is followed by the development of fibrous connective tissue in its place. The retention of the absorbable synthetic P.G.A suture after the second week is at 75% of the original, while after the end of the third week the retention is at 35% of the original. The surgical suture is substantially absorbed after a period of 50 - 90 days.
