Plastic surgeons use sutures for other purposes than the approximation of tissue. They are used to tie over a bolus to close a dead space or maintain a tissue graft in a desired place until it becomes adherent. A bolus of Vaseline gauze over a cotton dental roll is useful (Fig. 7). Sutures may be used to maintain certain tissue relationships until firm

Endoscopic suturing

Best Practice & Research Clinical Gastroenterology, 2004
We describe the development of endoscopic sewing machines and ancillary equipment for knot tying and thread cutting. We outline the experimental studies in dogs, pigs and baboons prior to the first studies in man. We consider the early results achieved by groups in Europe and the U.S.A., and present the available evidence from peer-reviewed studies and

Suture Tensor

The Journal of Dermatologic Surgery and Oncology, 1990
Abstract. The suture tensor is a simple stainless steel device that pulls the ends of a running subcuticular suture in opposite directions, maintaining the desired closure. The benefits of the use of this device may include minimization of train‐track and excisional scarification (via the enhanced maintenance of “tenting”), time savings, and ...

Coated Sutures

Sports Medicine and Arthroscopy Review, 2015
The addition of specific proteins or growth factors onto sutures would provide a direct application of exogenous factors to promote tissue repair. The higher levels of growth factors and cytokines may optimize the healing environment and promote tissue recovery.
