Product Overview

Prigut Catgut Sutures are absorbable, twisted surgical sutures made from purified collagen derived from the submucosal layer of healthy bovine intestines. They offer dependable wound support and are ideal for a variety of soft tissue approximation and ligation procedures.

Product Variants

  • Prigut Catgut Plain - A fast-absorbing suture designed for short-term wound support, ensuring minimal tissue reaction. It features a uniform smooth surface and sharp needle attachments for efficient suturing with reduced tissue drag.
  • Prigut Catgut Chromic - Treated with chronic salts, offers delayed absorption and improved tensile strength, making it suitable for internal soft tissue approximation where longer support is needed.

Indications

  • Plain Catgut is ideal for external skin closure and other procedures requiring short-term support.
  • Chromic Catgut is indicated for internal use in general soft tissue approximation and ligation, including gynecological, urological, and general surgical procedures, but not for use in cardiovascular or neurological tissues.
