Ethibond Excel suture is a non-absorbable, braided, sterile, surgical suture composed of poly (ethylene terephthalate). It is prepared from fibers of high molecular weight, long-chain, linear polyesters having recurrent aromatic rings as an integral component. Ethibond Excel suture is braided for optimal handling properties, and dyed green for enhanced visibility. Ethibond Excel suture is indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, including use in cardiovascular, ophthalmic and neurological procedures.
