A bag (200) includes an elongated bag body (201). The elongated bag body can define two opposing ends, namely an openable end (202) and a closed end (203). An adhesive strip (308) can be disposed upon an exterior of the elongated bag body. The adhesive strip can be disposed in a horizontal orientation parallel to the openable end. A flexible strip (208) can be disposed upon the exterior of the elongated bag body. The flexible strip can be bendable to retain the openable end in an open position (601). The bag is suitable for use as a suture collection bag.
