# Prolene 2-0 26mm Surgical Suture

## Product Overview Prolene 2-0 26mm Surgical Suture is a sterile, non-absorbable surgical suture manufactured by Ethicon.

Its smooth monofilament structure supports secure wound closure and remains in the body until removed or otherwise managed by a healthcare professional.

## Uses - Used for surgical wound closure. - Supports soft-tissue approximation. - Used for tissue ligation during surgical procedures. - Suitable for selected cardiovascular, general, and other soft-tissue procedures. - Used when a non-absorbable suture is clinically required.

## Key Benefits - Non-absorbable polypropylene material. - Smooth monofilament construction. - Blue colour for improved visibility. - 2-0 USP suture size. - 26mm curved surgical needle. - Designed for secure tissue approximation. - Suitable for professional surgical applications.
