The invention discloses an absorbable medical suture line with good mechanical performance. The absorbable medical suture line comprises, by weight, 100-120 parts of modified polylactic acid, 20-40 parts of polyglycollide, 4-6 parts of sorbitol, 3-5 parts of methyl methacrylate and 5-6 parts of cassia oil. The preparation method of the modified polylactic acid includes: in ice-bath, adding chitosan into perchloric acid, well mixing, dripping sorbic acid chloride, stirring, cooling, preserving heat and purifying to obtain modified chitosan; taking polyethylene glycol, feeding inert gas, heating, preserving heat until the polyethylene glycol melt, adding stannous chloride and lactide, well mixing, heating, preserving heat and stirring, and purifying to obtain intermediate material; dissolving the modified chitosan in mixed solvent, adding triethylamine, well mixing, heating, refluxing, adding the intermediate material, well mixing, continuing refluxing, purifying and drying to obtain the modified polylactic acid.
