CCL Lateral Nylon Sutures with Crimp – Without Swaged-On Needle

Product Overview: The CCL Lateral Nylon Sutures with Crimp (without swaged-on needle) are designed for veterinary surgeons who prefer flexibility in their surgical approach. While many practitioners opt for our sterile procedure packs with a swaged-on needle and appropriate crimps, this option allows for the use of custom needles. However, it is important to note that using a non-swaged-on needle with leader line may cause additional damage to the femoro-fabella ligament, which is crucial for the suture’s holding power.

Key Considerations:

• Avoiding Damage to the Femoro-Fabella Ligament: Passing monofilament nylon leader line through a regular needle can create more tissue damage as it passes through the femoro-fabella ligament. This ligament plays a vital role in the stability of the suture, and excessive damage can compromise the procedure’s effectiveness.
• Recommended Needle Type: For optimal results, we recommend using specialized Fabella (Cruciate) Needles. These needles are specifically designed to pass through the ligament with minimal trauma, ensuring the best possible holding strength for the suture.
• Procedure Considerations: Cruciate needles are used in conjunction with a 2.7mm bone tunnel borer, which creates a precise hole in the tibial crest for accurate suture placement and stability.

Why Choose This Product? This product offers flexibility for surgeons who prefer to use their own needle options, but it’s crucial to consider the potential for increased tissue trauma when not using a swaged-on needle. For most surgical cases, our sterile procedure packs with swaged-on needles are recommended to minimize damage and ensure a secure and reliable suture hold.

Important Note: If you choose to use non-swaged-on needles, please be mindful of the potential for increased tissue damage and its impact on the holding power of the suture. For the best outcomes, consider using our complete sterile procedure packs with swaged-on needles and appropriate crimps.
