Expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) – expanded monofilament
Absorbable vs Non- absorbable
• Strength of absorbable sutures are less
• Non-absorbable sutures
• retain strength indefinitely and are used
• where strength is needed until repair is completed naturally
(abdominal incision and hernia repair)
JMJ 5
Natural vs Synthetic
Natural
• Catgut
• Silk
• Linen (strong inflammatory
reaction)
Synthetic
• Dexon
• Vicryl
• PDS
• Nylon
• Polypropylene
• ePTFE

• Catgut
• Polydiaxanone
• Wire
• Polypropylene
• Nylon
Braided
• Polyglycolic acid
• Polyglactil
• Silk
• Nylon
• Linen
JMJ 7
They are smooth
Pass easily through
tissue
Cause less tissue
reaction
Handle well
More risk of
infection
Features of a ideal suture material
• Adequate tensile strength
• Good knot holding property
• Should be least reactive
• Easy handling property
• Should have less memory
• Should be easily available and costeffective
JMJ 8
JMJ 9
JMJ 10
JMJ 11
Absorbable
Suture Materials
JMJ 12
Plain catgut
• Absorbed by inflammatory reaction and phagocytosis
• Absorption time – 7 days
• Used for
• Subcutaneous tissue
• Muscle
• Circumcision in children
JMJ 13
Chromic catgut
• Catgut with chromic acid salt
• Brown in colour
• Absorption time 21 days
• Used for
• Suturing muscles
• Fascia
• External oblique aponeurosis
• Ligating pedicles
JMJ 14
Vicryl – Polyglactic acid
• Absorbed in 90 days
• Absorption is by hydrolysis
• Violet in colour (braided)
• Polyfilament and braided
• Used for
• Bowel anastomosis
• Suturing muscles
• Closure of peritoneum
JMJ 15
Dexon – Polyglycolic acid
• Creamy yellow in colour
JMJ 16
PDS- Poly Dioxanone Suture
Material
• Costly
• But better than vicryl
Uses in absorbable suture materials
• Bowel anastomosis (gastrojejunostomy, resection &
anastomosis)
• Vicryl
• In cholecystojejunostomy, choledechojejunostomy
• Vicryl
• In suturing muscle, fascia, peritoneum, sub cutaneous
tissue, mucosa
JMJ 17
Uses of absorbable suture materials
• Ligation of pedicles during hysterectomy
• 1-zero chromic catgut
• Vicryl
• In circumcision
• 3-zero plain or chromic catgut
• Absorbable suture materials should not be used for
• Suturing tendons
• Nerves
• Vessels (vascular anastomosis)
JMJ 18
Non-Absorbable
Suture Materials
JMJ 19
Silk
• Black colour
• Coated material to reduce capillary action
JMJ 20
Polypropelene
• Blue in colour
• Got high memory
JMJ 21
MEMORY – is recoiling tendency after
removal from the packet. Ideally
suture material should have low
memory
Uses of non- absorbable suture
materials
• In herniorraphy for repair
• For closure of abdomen after laparotomy
• For vascular anastomosis (6-zero), nerve suturing,
tendon suturing
• For tension suturing in the abdomen
• For suturing of skin
JMJ 22
TYPES OF SUTURING
JMJ 23
Simple continuous suture
Interrupted simple suturing
Increase risk of infection
Easy when need of draining
Interrupted mattress suturing
Subcuticular suturing
Good cosmetic results
Suture Removal
• Face and neck  3-4 days
• Scalp  5-7 days
• Limbs  5-7 days
• Hands and feet  10-14 days
• Abdomen  8-10 days
JMJ 28
TYPES OF KNOTS
JMJ 29
NEEDLES

Needles
Cutting edge
• Triangular in cross section
• Skin
• Tendon
• Breast tissue
Round body
• Oval or round in cross
section
• GI tract
• Vascular anastamosis
