Buhner Suture Needle

Overview

The Buhner Suture Needle is a specialist veterinary needle used for the Bühner suture technique, the standard method for retaining vaginal and uterine prolapse in cows, buffaloes, ewes and goats. The long, curved stainless steel needle passes deep around the vulva under the skin, carrying the tape or suture that holds the prolapse safely in place while the animal recovers. Its strong shaft and sharp point allow smooth passage through tissue with less force, which makes the procedure quicker and less stressful for the animal. The needle is easy to clean and can be sterilised for repeated use. It belongs in every large animal obstetric kit. Order Buhner suture needles from Dentuf Instruments.
