Monofil 3-0 75cm Non-Absorbable Monofilament Surgical Suture (Pack of 25) – Made in Russia
Monofil is a high-quality, non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament suture renowned for its biocompatibility, strength, atraumatic properties, and resistance to capillary action and wicking. Its monolithic structure and hydrophobicity prevent tissue fluid absorption, minimizing the risk of infection. Ideal for cardiovascular, neurological, ophthalmic, and plastic surgery (including removable cosmetic intradermal sutures), Monofil is also suitable for securing various implantable devices (e.g., hernia prostheses, vascular grafts). While highly versatile, Monofil is not recommended for urological or biliary procedures due to potential stone formation. Applications include cardiac valve implantation, vascular and organ prosthesis, and suturing of aponeuroses, skin, tendons, bile ducts, pancreas, and gastrointestinal tract. Its ease of knotting makes it suitable for both manual and instrumental techniques. For enhanced security, additional knots are recommended. Comparable sutures include Prolene, Surgilene, Premilene, Surgipro, Mopylen, and Polypropylene.
