In the field of medicine and medical technology, improving the technical properties of the surgical suture material. Composite surgical suture material includes titanium monothreads combined in a polyfilament thread, wherein a bioresorbable polymer material is present in the gaps between the monothreads and on their surface, and the monothreads have a relief surface. The technical result increases the strength, elasticity and plasticity of the suture material, the absence of a sawing effect on tissues, an increase in the sliding friction coefficient, and also in ensuring capability of carrying antibacterial and other medicinal substances in its structure, in ensuring a long-term presence in the body and possessing a high biological inertness in the late postoperative period, which excludes the initiation and persistence of aseptic inflammation associated with the presence of the material in the body.
