Retainer package for resilient surgical sutures

摘要

A retainer package is provided for receiving, and maintaining for ready removal, at least one resilient surgical suture in a coiled configuration. The package includes a plurality of interconnected panels which may be folded upon one another to form a means for housing the resilient sutures. The package is formed with a loading port defining a radially unobstructed passageway for receiving the resilient sutures coils. Structure may be associated with the package for securely maintaining surgical needles for ready removal.
