Elastic Copolyurethane Suture
Introduction
Wound closure materials - a) suture
materials (widely used) b) biadhesive materials c) stapler
materials As there is requirement of sutures of different
kinds of materials polymeric to match physical propshas
of tissues whose it will be used. This leads to development
of sutures from new polymeric materials. New varity
of polyurethane material having properties to match
the mechanical properties of tissue has been developed.
This can be used as suture material.
