ABSTRACT:
Needle-suture combinations are provided wherein a needle having an axial opening in the blunt end thereof for receiving a suture is bonded to the suture with a hot melt wax composition having sufficient bonding strength to secure the needle to the suture during surgical procedures, but which allows the needle to be deliberately removed from the suture by a sharp tug at the completion of the surgical procedure. Needle pulloff values in the range of 1 to 56 ounces (0.028 to 1.58 kg) are readily obtained.
