SURCAPRONE™ Absorbable Polyglecaprone 25 Sutures
Controlled Absorption and Reliable Strength for Soft Tissue Closure
SURCAPRONE Absorbable Polyglecaprone 25 Sutures monofilament is designed to provide reliable short-term tissue support with smooth handling and predictable absorption. It is specifically developed for procedures where temporary wound support is required, while minimizing tissue reaction and promoting natural healing.
| Suture Type: | Monofilament |
| Material Composition: | Polyglecaprone 25 (75% glycolide / 25% ε-caprolactone) |
| Color | Violet |
| Coating | None |
| Tissue Reaction | Importantly, SURCAPRONE causes minimal tissue reaction, thereby promoting safe, gentle, and comfortable healing. |
Absorbable Polyglecaprone 25 Sutures and Tensile Strength Profile
SURCAPRONE undergoes absorption through hydrolytic action, resulting in complete resorption within approximately 90 to 120 days.
- Approximately 60% of original tensile strength remains after one week
- Approximately 30% of tensile strength remains at the end of the second week
Accordingly, this controlled strength retention supports tissue healing during the most critical postoperative period.
Indications for Use – Where SURCAPRONE Absorbable Sutures Are Used
SURCAPRONE sutures are commonly used for:
- General surgery.
- Skin closure.
- Gastrointestinal surgery.
- Plastic surgery.
- Gynaecology.
- Urology.
As a result, SURCAPRONE is well suited for a wide range of superficial soft tissue procedures.

Contraindications and Usage Considerations
SURCAPRONE is not recommended for the following procedures:
- Cardiovascular surgery
- Ophthalmic surgery
- Neurosurgery
Additionally, because SURCAPRONE is an absorbable suture, it should not be used when extended wound support is required.
