Veterinary Surgical Sutures Market: Overview

Veterinary surgical sutures are specialized materials used by veterinarians to close wounds or surgical incisions in animals. These sutures are designed to meet the unique needs of veterinary surgery, accommodating various animal tissues and healing processes. Available in absorbable and non-absorbable forms, veterinary sutures come in different materials, including synthetic polymers, natural fibers, and metal. Absorbable sutures are used for internal tissues where the suture will naturally degrade over time, while non-absorbable sutures are used for external closures and require removal once healing is complete. Proper suture selection and technique are crucial for minimizing tissue reaction, promoting efficient wound healing, and reducing the risk of infection or complications.
