Description
Chromic Cutgut No. 3/0 Round Body
The Chromic Cutgut No. 3/0 Round Body suture is a high-quality absorbable surgical thread designed for soft tissue approximation and ligation. Made from purified collagen derived from healthy bovine or ovine intestines, it is treated with chromic salts to increase its tensile strength and prolong absorption time. This treatment allows the suture to retain strength for approximately 10–14 days, with full absorption typically occurring within 90 days.
Equipped with a round body needle, this suture is ideal for use in delicate, non-cutting applications. The needle’s smooth, tapered design gently parts tissue rather than cutting through it, minimizing trauma and supporting natural healing. It is especially well-suited for procedures involving internal organs and soft tissues such as in gynecology, urology, and gastrointestinal surgery.
The 3/0 gauge offers a fine diameter that balances flexibility with reliable strength, making it appropriate for areas requiring precise suturing. This suture ensures smooth handling, good knot security, and consistent absorption—important qualities for dependable surgical performance.
Sterile and for single use, the Chromic Cutgut 3/0 Round Body suture is widely used in both human and veterinary medicine. It provides a dependable solution for short-term wound support where absorbable sutures are preferred and suture removal is either difficult or undesirable.
