A surgical suture package, primarily for double armed multi-strand sutures, retains each individual suture in a predetermined sinusoidal configuration within adjacent but separate compartments. Notches along one edge of the package secure the armed ends of each suture which are held in place within the package when the compartments are folded together. As the package is unfolded, the armed ends are exposed sequentially, facilitating removal by the surgeon of each suture from its compartment one at a time without tangling and kinking. |
