• This is highly effective for anchoring deep fascia or managing large, high-tension incisions.
• 48mm TS Needle Leverage: The TS needle is one of the largest in the Ethicon catalog. At 48mm, it provides immense leverage for penetrating thick dermis, scar tissue, or cartilaginous structures, allowing the surgeon to maintain control through the entire arc of the stitch.
• Inert Monofilament Glide: PROLENE® is a single, smooth strand.
• Permanent Structural Integrity: Unlike absorbable sutures, the 8571G maintains 100% of its tensile strength indefinitely. This makes it ideal for structural repairs that must withstand significant physiological movement during the healing phase.
