ABSTRACT A package for multiple strands of surgical sutures which provides for delivery of individual suture strands. The several sutures are contained within a single compartment of the package, with each suture being individually wound in the form of a coil comprising a series of convolutions, each convolution being laterally displaced from adjacent convolutions and disposed in sequence over the length of the suture. Each individual suture within the package compartment is laterally displaced from adja- cent sutures in a contiguous, partially overlapping relationship. The desired suture coil configuration and positioning within the package compartment is conveniently obtained by sequentially winding individual sutures around two vertical winding pins in an upwardly spiraling pattern, with successive loops of each su- ture and successive sutures being displaced laterally along the pins. The wound sutures are packaged in a suture folder which is adapted to maintain the individual sutures in their wound con- figuration and in their relative positions with one end of each suture extending from the folder whereby individual suture strands may be grasped and withdrawn from the package without en- tangling sutures remaining in the package.
