ABSORBABLE<\/a><\/div>

Absorbable sutures<\/strong> degrade in tissue through a process of hydrolysis, by which they progressively lose their tensile strength.<\/p>\n

Degradation by hydrolysis causes minimal tissue reaction. This process takes place in two stages. In the first stage<\/strong>, tensile strength decreases gradually and in an almost linear fashion. The second stage<\/strong> usually overlaps with the first and is characterized by the loss of suture mass. During this phase, leukocytes act to clear the wound of cell debris and suture material remnants.<\/p>\n

Therefore, the loss of tensile strength and absorption are different processes. For this reason, the loss of tensile strength is the most important factor<\/strong> to consider when selecting an absorbable suture.<\/p>\n

There are different types of absorbable sutures with different tensile strength retention and absorption periods, which are selected depending on the tissues to be sutured.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

NON-ABSORBABLE<\/a><\/div>

Non-absorbable sutures<\/strong> are made of non-biodegradable material, meaning they cannot be digested by enzymes or hydrolyzed within tissues.<\/p>\n

Ultimately, fibroblasts permanently encapsulate<\/strong> them, allowing them to maintain their maximum strength over time, unless the stitches are removed postoperatively (skin closure).<\/p>\n

There are different types of non-absorbable sutures with varying levels of tensile strength<\/strong>, available as monofilament or multifilament, chosen based on the tissue to be sutured or the clinician's discretion.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
