Catgut chromic suture is a type of surgical suture made from the
submucosal fibrous layer of a sheep's or goat's intestine. The term
"catgut" is a misnomer, as it doesn't involve cat intestines. The term
may have originated from the word "kitgut" or "knot gut." The chromic
treatment involves chromium salts, enhancing the suture's resistance to
enzymatic digestion and slowing down its absorption by the body. Catgut
chromic sutures were commonly used in surgery for their absorbable
nature, but synthetic alternatives have gained popularity in modern
medical practice.
