Features and Benefits
  • Caprosyn suture’s quick absorption, durable polymer material and monofilament construction provides smooth passage through tissue, better approximation or ligation, and minimized potentiation of infection
  • Indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, but not for use in cardiovascular or neurological surgery, microsurgery, or ophthalmic surgery
  • Complete mass absorption in approximately 56 days
  • Monofilament surface of Caprosyn™ results in less tissue drag than the twisted surface of Gut sutures
  • Caprosyn™ is a monofilament synthetic absorbable suture that provides short term tensile strength
  • This product is required to be reported under California Proposition 65
