Thanks to its long absorption profile, PDO RESORBA™ is ideal for all indications requiring extended wound support.

After implantation, it retains 55 % of its original tensile strength even after 42 days. Complete absorption by hydrolysis occurs approximately within 25 to 31 weeks. Due to the monofilament structure, tissue reactions are minimal.

PDO RESORBA™ is available in undyed or violet versions.

Properties:
  • High tensile strength
  • Minimal tissue reaction
  • Smooth passage through tissue
  • High knot security
