SERALENE®
SERALENE® is a non-absorbable suture developed especially for vascular surgery, as it passes optimally through the tissues thanks to its smooth pore-free surface. PVDF is related to PTFE. In comparison with polypropylene, SERALENE® has much greater durability, i.e. the material remains unchanged in the body. This ensures long-term stability of the stitches.
Further indications for use: e.g. as skin closure with premium needles, especially in plastic surgery.
In addition, SERALENE® has been used in minimally invasive surgery for intradermal and endoscopic suturing (“endo-suture”) for many years.
- sustained tensile strength
- knot-holding security
- almost no memory effects after stretching
- best results in vascular surgery
