“…These materials are derived from purified connective tissue (predominantly collagen) from the small intestine of sheep or cattle 47 . It is a monofilament material, absorbed through the mechanism of enzymatic digestion which leads to greater inflammation 48 . It is available in two forms: plain and chromed.…”

Suturing materials are artificial products used for intimate approximation of the wound margins, until they are capable of self-healing with the help of natural collagen fibers. The ideal suture material must have the following characteristics: strength, knot stability, flexibility, easy handling, minimal tissue response and resistance to infection. There is a wide range of suturing materials and they are used in both periodontal surgery and implantology. Today, the number of alternative products that are used as sutures has increased, as well as synthetically produced products. We mainly classify suturing materials as nonresorbable and resorbable. Furthermore, they can be subclassified as natural and synthetic as well as monofilament or multifilament materials. In this review paper we performed an electronic database search and tracked the inflammatory reactions of tissues when using different types of suturing materials. In the paper we have highlighted the more significant trends in new types of sutures. Tissue reactions vary depending on the surface of the materials and the bacterial adhesion to them.

“…The catgut chrome loses 50% of the resistance in the 20 days 19 and 100% after 5 weeks in the tissues. It is a monofilament wire, absorbed by the mechanism of enzymatic digestion, which causes tissue significantly more intense reaction than the synthetic absorbable [7].…”

Objective: to describe the physical characteristics and biological of the wires of more sutures used in surgical practice daily and their indications. Methods: Review was conducted of literature through to search in the databases Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science and Scopus. Results: were described data on the qualities of the ideal suture, general classification and descriptive, criteria for use and the physical and biological characteristics of absorbable sutures, wires, monofilaments and multifilamentary. Conclusion: it was possible to synthesize the current knowledge the respect of strands of suture, to be used by students of medicine, surgery residents, surgeons and its subspecialties.

“…O catgut cromado perde 50% da resistência em 19 a 20 dias e 100% após 5 semanas nos tecidos. Trata-se de um fio monofilamentar, absorvido pelo mecanismo de digestão enzimática, que provoca reação tecidual significativamente mais intensa do que os absorvíveis sintéticos 7 .…”

Purpose: This is a review with the aim of describing the physical and biological characteristics of the most used sutures in daily surgical practice, and their indications. Methods: We reviewed the medical literature by searching the Pubmed and SciElo databases. Results: Data on the ideal qualities of sutures, general classification, indications, uses criteria. The physical and biological characteristics of absorbable, nonabsorbable, monofilamentar and multifilamentar sutures were described. Conclusion: With this review it was possible to synthesize current knowledge about sutures, which will certainly be useful for medical students, residents and surgeons.
