Features & Benefits:

  • Ethicon PERMAHAND® Silk Suture is a nonabsorbable, sterile, surgical suture composed of anorganic protein.
  • The sutures are processed to remove the natural waxes and gums, dyed black and coated with a special wax mixture.
  • Suture elicits an acute inflammatory reaction in tissue, which is followed by a gradual encapsulation of the suture by fibrous connective tissue.
  • While silk sutures are not absorbed, progressive degradation of the proteinaceous silk fiber in vivo may result in gradual loss of all of the suture’s tensile strength over time.
  • Due to the gradual loss of tensile strength which may occur over prolonged periods in vivo, silk suture should not be used where permanent retention of tensile strength is required.
  • Carefully selecting a surgical suture needle is a critical component in achieving excellent wound closure outcomes. The ideal surgical needle should be:
    • Sharp enough to penetrate and carry suture through tissue with minimal resistance.
    • Slim as possible without compromising strength.
    • Rigid to resist bending, yet ductile to resist breaking.
    • Stable in the grasp of the needleholder.
  • Ethicon offers over 200 types of surgical suture needles, allowing clinicians great flexibility to select the most appropriate needle for the specific needs of the tissue being repaired.
