A synthetic, monofilament or multifilament surgical suture which is highly visible under normal and ultraviolet lighting conditions comprising a colored flurorescent dye incorporated therein. The dye imparts a distinctive color to the synthetic suture under visible light and will fluoresce with a bright color upon exposure to ultraviolet light. The dyed synthetic suture, particurlarly a nonabsorbable suture of multifilament construction, is especially adapted for external wound repair to greatly enhance identification and ensure complete suture removal. |
