Abstract

The invention relates to non-absorbable surgical threads of the kind used in general surgery, cosmetic surgery or any other surgical specialty, which threads are labelled with a radiopaque material so that, when implanted, they can be identified and located inside a body by X-ray scanning or image intensification, with a view to removing said threads. The invention solves the problem of identifying, locating and subsequently removing conventional non-absorbable surgical threads in the event of, inter alia, foreign body rejection (of threads), poor implantation or thread build-up as a result of multiple operations. The radiopaque material can be incorporated into any type of surgical thread, including barbed threads with converging, diverging or segmented barbs. The threads can be labelled at regular intervals or over the entire length thereof.
