This VICRYL® (Polyglactin 910) Absorbable Surgical Ligature, product code EH6857H, is designed for secure vessel ligation and soft tissue control where predictable short- to mid-term wound support is required. Manufactured from synthetic braided polyglactin 910, VICRYL® provides excellent handling characteristics, dependable knot security and consistent absorption performance.

The USP 2 diameter delivers substantial tensile strength suitable for medium to larger vessel ligation and moderate to high-tension soft tissue management. The green braided construction enhances intraoperative visibility while maintaining flexibility and smooth knot tying performance.

This configuration includes 3 strands of 45 cm, supplied needleless, allowing clinicians to cut to required lengths and attach a separate needle where preferred or use directly as ligature ties. The braided construction supports secure knot placement with minimal slippage.

VICRYL® is absorbed by hydrolysis with a predictable absorption profile, providing reliable wound support during the critical healing phase before gradual resorption. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this product is intended for professional surgical environments requiring dependable absorbable ligature material.
