Dissolvable gauzes are typically made from water-soluble materials such as polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) or Gelatin. These materials are processed into thin sheets or pads, which can be infused with medications or healing agents if desired. The gauzes are then cut to size and packaged for medical use, ensuring they retain their properties until they are applied to a wound. Once in contact with moisture, the gauze dissolves, providing a barrier while delivering therapeutic agents to the wound site.

Are the external sutures dissolvable in a keyhole hysterectomy?

In a keyhole hysterectomy, also known as laparoscopic hysterectomy, external sutures may or may not be used depending on the surgical technique and the surgeon's preference. If external sutures are used, they are typically non-dissolvable and will need to be removed after a few days. However, some surgeons may use dissolvable sutures for internal layers, while external skin closure may still require non-dissolvable stitches. Always consult with your surgeon for specific details related to your procedure.
