Maxon synthetic absorbable sutures are prepared from polyglyconate, a copolymer of glycolic acid and trimethylene carbonate. They feature reverse cutting needles with tri-coined edges for dense connective tissue and skin, providing strength and security for extended wound healing. These sutures are indicated for general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, including pediatric cardiovascular tissue, but not for adult cardiovascular tissue, ophthalmic surgery, microsurgery, and neural tissues. The advanced extrusion process of the polyglyconate molecule gives the suture excellent in-vivo strength retention, knot tying security, and minimal memory.
