Frequently asked questions

Are Medtronic Surgilon™ sutures absorbable?

Medtronic Surgilon™ sutures are nonabsorbable, meaning they provide permanent tensile strength for long-lasting wound support. This makes them suitable for applications where long-term tissue support is needed.

Does the silicone coating improve handling?

Yes, the Medtronic Surgilon Braided Nylon Sutures utilize a uniform silicone coating specifically engineered to optimize surgical performance and handling.

This crucial coating provides several benefits:

  • Enhanced Handling: It improves the manipulation characteristics of the braided nylon material, making it easier to work with.
  • Smooth Tissue Passage: The coating facilitates exceptionally smooth passage through tissue, reducing friction.
  • Reduced Capillarity: It minimizes capillarity, which significantly reduces the potential for fluid wicking along the suture strand.
Does Surgilon offer a comprehensive range of suture sizes?

Yes, Medtronic Surgilon Braided Nylon Sutures are available in a comprehensive range of common surgical sizes suitable for diverse soft tissue approximation and ligation needs.The sizes offered include:

  • 0
  • 1
  • 2-0
  • 3-0
  • 4-0
  • 5-0
What high-quality materials are these sutures made from?

These sutures are made from high-quality, nonabsorbable materials designed for permanent tissue support and optimal surgical handling:

  • Core Material: The suture is composed of Braided Nylon (Nylon 6.6), derived from long-chain aliphatic polymers. As a nonabsorbable material, it provides permanent tensile strength retention in the tissue.
  • Coating: A specialized uniform silicone coating is applied. This coating significantly enhances surgical performance by:
    • Improving handling characteristics.
    • Promoting smooth passage through tissue.
    • Minimizing capillarity (wicking action).
What specialized needle types are offered?

Yes, Medtronic Surgilon Braided Nylon Sutures are available in numerous configurations that include specialized needles designed for optimal performance across various surgical procedures.

Available Needle Point Types

These sutures can be configured with point types suited for different tissue densities:

  • Reverse Cutting: Ideal for penetrating tough tissues, such as skin, due to the cutting edge facing away from the wound edge.
  • Taper Point: Preferred for smooth or delicate tissues, minimizing trauma.
  • Tapercutting: A hybrid needle combining the initial sharp penetration of a cutting needle with the reduced tissue drag of a taper point.

These sutures are supplied with a wide range of specific needle geometries identified by codes, including C-13, P-11, V-20, GS-22, and CV-23, allowing for precise selection based on surgical needs.

What colors are available for the nylon sutures?

The Medtronic Surgilon Braided Nylon Sutures come in two distinct color options to suit various surgical visibility needs:

  • Black
  • White

The specific color included depends on the size, length, and needle configuration selected for your order.

What suture lengths are available?

Medtronic Surgilon Braided Nylon Sutures are offered in various standard physical lengths to accommodate different surgical procedures, including:

  • 18 inches
  • 30 inches
  • 98 inches
  • 144 inches

Note that the longer lengths (98” and 144”) are typically supplied as bulk reel configurations.

What needle configurations are available?

The Medtronic Surgilon sutures are designed to accommodate diverse surgical needs and are available with several types of attached needles. The construction ensures reliable tissue passage and ease of handling.

The primary needle geometries offered include:

  • Reverse Cutting (including Premium Reverse Cutting variants)
  • Taper Point
  • Tapercutting

These configurations are available across a very wide range of specific needle sizes and shapes, identified by codes such as C-13, P-11, V-20, GS-22, CV-23, and many others, ensuring compatibility with numerous surgical procedures.

What needle curvature options are offered?

The Medtronic Surgilon Braided Nylon Sutures are available with two standard needle curvature options, providing flexibility for precise handling and optimal tissue trajectory:

  • 3/8 Circle
  • 1/2 Circle

These configurations allow surgeons to select the appropriate option for effective soft tissue approximation and ligation based on the specific surgical site.

How does the silicone-coated braided structure improve performance?

The Medtronic Surgilon sutures are constructed from Nylon 6.6, a nonabsorbable material offering exceptional tensile strength for reliable, permanent tissue approximation. The braided structure is uniformly coated with silicone, which is engineered to provide superior surgical performance by:

  • Enhancing Handling Characteristics: The coating improves the tactile feel and ease of manipulation for the surgeon.
  • Facilitating Smooth Tissue Passage: It allows for easier and smoother passage through delicate tissues, reducing trauma.
  • Minimizing Capillarity: The silicone treatment effectively mitigates capillary action, preventing the wicking of fluids along the suture strand.

This unique design ensures both robust tissue retention and superior handling control during procedures.
