    Product Description
    Suture choice plays an important part in achieving an optimal soft tissue approximation, particularly where reduced capsule formation, inflammation and suture hole leakage are key considerations. GORE-TEX® Suture, a nonabsorbable, ePTFE suture, delivers the handling and performance characteristics sought by a variety of surgical specialties. Soft, flexible and compressible for ease of use, the suture features a microporous structure that permits tissue attachment, fosters a benign tissue response, and allows a close needle-to-thread diameter ratio to reduce suture hole leakage.
