Suture materials are of crucial importance for most surgical procedures, and knowledge about these is useful for all doctors. This clinical review article gives an introduction to the most common sutu...
Biliary reconstruction remains a technically demanding and complicated procedure in minimally invasive hepatopancreatobiliary surgeries. No optimal hepaticojejunostomy (HJ) technique has been demonstr...
We performed a retrospective analysis of a prospectively collected database. Forty-two patients who underwent robotic pancreatoduodenectomy using this technique between September 2020 and November 202...
The median operative time was 410 (interquartile range [IQR], 388-478) min, and the median HJ time was 30 (IQR, 28-39) min. The median bile duct diameter was 7 (IQR, 6-10) mm. Of the 42 patients, one ...
Posterior double-layer interrupted sutures in robotic HJ provided a simple and feasible method for biliary reconstruction with a low risk of biliary complications....
Basic suturing is a skill expected from graduating medical students. A proposed concept to increase suturing competency is to integrate art by mixing cross-stitching with suturing. We hypothesize that...
We performed a randomized controlled trial of preclinical medical students using an art-based cross-stitching method intervention compared with conventional suturing. Both groups were provided with an...
A total of 16 preclinical medical students participated. Self-assessment and objective suturing performance were comparable in the preintervention measurements. The intervention group showed significa...
The cross-suturing intervention improved suturing skills in this cohort. This low-cost approach to medical student surgical education should be explored on a larger scale....
Perioperative preventive measures are important to further reduce the rate of periprosthetic joint infections (PJI) in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA). During THA surgery, joint capsu...
In 100 consecutive patients undergoing primary THA capsule sutures were exchanged by sterile sutures at the time of capsule closure. Both the original sutures and the remainder of the newly placed (co...
Sutures from 98 patients were successfully collected and analyzed. Bacterial growth was observed in 7/98 (7.1%) of the capsule sutures versus 6/98 (6.1%) of the control sutures, with a difference of 1...
This study showed that around 7% of capsule sutures used in primary THA were contaminated with bacteria and as such exchange by new sutures at the time of capsule closure could be an appealing PJI pre...
The aim of this study was to compare the surgical results and the complications of absorbable suture (AS) versus permanent suture (PS) in sacrocolpopexy (SCP)....
We systematically searched PubMed, Embase, ClinicalTrials.gov, and the Cochrane Library Central Register of Controlled Trials for articles in which researchers compared AS with PS in SCP. The primary ...
Four articles involving 689 patients were ultimately included. Our findings demonstrated that AS had similar surgical success rates to those of PS (OR=1.34; 95% CI, 0.60-2.96) and no significant diffe...
The data showed that AS had a similar success rate, less exposure/erosion, and were less likely to be removed and require retreatment than PS, which supported the notion that AS is as effective as PS ...
Although most reported cases of minor suture involvement include multiple sutures, isolated suture involvement has been reported. Morphologic differences such as scaphocephaly and anterior plagiocepha...
At the end of surgical therapy, the access is closed with sutures. Surgical sutures are thus used to adapt wound edges and tissues. The task of the suture material is to hold the tissues together unti...
To evaluate the feasibility and clinical effect of Krackow suturing combined with the suture bridge technique for the treatment of acute inferior pole patella fracture....
In this study, 18 patients with acute inferior pole patella fracture who received treatment using Krackow suturing combined with the suture bridge technique between January 2019 and March 2020 were re...
Patients were followed up for 13-26 months, with an average follow-up period of 19.6 months. X-ray indicated that fracture union had occurred in all patients by 10.1 weeks after surgery on average (ra...
Our results indicated that Krackow suturing combined with the suture bridge technique can achieve stable fracture fixation, provides good clinical outcomes in the treatment of acute inferior pole pate...
Suturing techniques for wound closure in spine surgeries play a critical role in patient outcomes, including wound healing, reintervention, and risk of complications. Barbed sutures, characterized by ...
The surgical treatment of inferior patellar pole fractures can be a challenge, especially in geriatric patients, who are particularly frequently affected by osteoporosis. The objective of this biomech...
Twelve fresh-frozen human cadaveric knees received a transverse osteotomy, simulating an AO/OTA 34C1.3 inferior pole fracture of the patella. These fractures were fixated with either suture anchors (S...
The suture anchor group showed significantly fewer cycles to failure than the transosseous suture group (SA: 539.0 ± 465.6 cycles, TS: 1000 ± 0 cycles, P = 0.04). Bone mineral density correlated posit...
Suture anchors may be a viable alternative to transosseous suture in younger patients for clinical advantages, but in osteoporotic bone, the more stable osteosynthesis with transosseous suture continu...
