What Are The Heat Seal Surgical Sutures Made From?
Hi,
I saw on the telly the other day an operation for, I think, a gastric bypass and to cut a seal the stomach down to size it looked like they were using something that looked and acted like a small hair streightning iron that cut and sealed and left what looked like gauze in place along each 'scar line'.
What is this stuff called and does it disolve or stay in the body permanantly?
Thanks
