Surgical staples are specialized staples used in surgery in place of sutures to close skin wounds, connect or remove parts of some orgams. Stapling is much faster than suturing by hand, and also more accurate and consistent. In bowel and lung surgery, staples are primarily used because staple lines are less likely to leak blood, air or bowel. Another important usage of surgical staplers is on intestinal surgery where the edges of the stapler act as a haemostat, compressing the edges of the wound and closing blood vessels during the stapling process. |

All of our surgical staples are made of titanium, stainless steel is used in skin staple.
Titanium produces less reaction with the immune system due to its unmatched biocompatibility characteristic. Titanium staples are never solely titanium; they all have some amount of nickel content. Patients who have allergies to nickel should discuss nickel allergies with their surgeon. |
