Description

The Gut Chromic 4-0 Suture, 18" with G3 reverse cutting needle, is a premium surgical suture designed for delicate and precise wound closure. Made from chromic gut, a natural material derived from the submucosa of sheep intestines, this suture is treated with chromium salts to enhance its durability and slow down absorption. It is ideal for use in soft tissue approximation where gradual absorption is required.

The suture features a reverse cutting needle, which provides superior cutting capability while minimizing trauma to the surrounding tissue. The G3 needle is known for its precision and sharpness, making it well-suited for intricate procedures requiring fine control. With its 18" length and 4-0 size, the suture is versatile enough for various surgical applications, including general surgery and gynecological procedures.

Gut Chromic sutures are designed to provide reliable wound support while gradually being absorbed by the body over time. This gradual absorption, combined with the needle’s cutting efficiency, ensures optimal healing with minimal risk of suture-related complications.
