Ethilon Suture is a non-absorbable monofilament nylon suture used in microsurgical training. In the Grapefruit dACA Bypass Simulator, very fine Ethilon gauges (10-0 and 11-0) are used to practise side-to-side vascular anastomosis on grapefruit septal membranes and chicken wing brachial artery segments.
