Veterinary dissolvable stitches are a preferred choice in veterinary surgeries due to the challenges of managing animals post-operatively, as their high activity levels can complicate recovery. These sutures provide excellent tensile strength to ensure secure wound closure while significantly reducing the risk of dehiscence and the need for a second surgery. Their rapid absorption eliminates the necessity of suture removal, making them both practical and efficient. Among the various options, PGA and PDO sutures are particularly popular in veterinary procedures because of their reliability and performance.
Non-absorbable veterinary sutures, such as nylon, silk, polyester, and stainless steel suture, are known for their durability and ability to securely hold surgical sites. However, they require removal since they are not absorbable. These sutures are primarily used for skin closures and surgeries requiring long-term stabilization, like orthopedic procedures.
