Ethicon Vicryl Plus Violet Braided Suture and Vicryl Suture both stand out as exceptional surgical tools. The Vicryl #4 suture, in particular, boasts a unique feature – absorbability. Over time, it gradually dissolves within the body, eliminating the need for removal post-surgery. Its striking violet color enhances visibility during procedures, while the braided structure provides both strength and durability. Ethicon, a respected leader in the medical device industry, manufactures these sutures, ensuring sterility to minimize infection risks in surgical settings.On the other hand, the Vicryl Suture specializes in soft tissue approximation and ligation, including ophthalmic procedures. It shares the copolymer composition, but its absorption mechanism relies on hydrolysis.
