Avoiding stitch abscesses in subcuticular skin closures: the L-stitch.
A potential problem with the standard method of skin closure in pediatric surgery is the development of a skin abscess. To avoid this problem, we introduce a new stitch--the L-stitch. The technique involves passing the suture subcuticularly at the end of the incision and redirecting the needle at a 90 degree angle from the previous suture, before bringing it out to the skin surface. This stitch...
متن کاملBiomechanical evaluation between the modified Mason-Allen stitch and the locked double-tie stitch on the infraspinatus of sheep☆☆☆
OBJECTIVES To evaluate and compare the in vitro biomechanical results from two stitches: the Mason-Allen stitch, as modified by Habermeyer; and the locked double-tie stitch developed at our service, on tendons of the infraspinatus muscle of sheep. METHODS Twenty tendons from the infraspinatus muscle of sheep were randomly divided into two groups: LDT, on which the locked double-tie stitch was...
متن کاملThe modified massive cuff stitch: functional and structural outcome in massive cuff tears
BACKGROUND The massive cuff stitch (MCS) is known to be a strong suture, suitable for rotator cuff repair. We modified this technique for massive cuff tears by employing a horizontal medial mattress suture from an anchor as well as a vertically crossing transosseous suture. METHODS We included 42 patients with massive cuff tears suitable for repair: 22 were treated with the modified MCS (MCS ...
متن کاملClipping the Alfieri Stitch.
A 75-year-old woman underwent a surgical correction of severe mitral regurgitation (MR). The valve morphology was characterized by chordae rupture (P2), prolapse (A2), and an unusual small anterior valve area with a restrictive posterior leaflet. The correction comprised chordae replacement P2/A2 without annuloplasty due to a tight annulus. Finally, an Alfieri stitch was performed. Four weeks l...
متن کاملNovel surgical approach to subcutaneous closure: the subcutaneous inverted cross mattress stitch (SICM Stitch).
Placement of subcutaneous stitches minimizes the distance between wound edges, diminishes the tension on the wound when percutaneous or running subcutaneous stitches are placed; and, when placed properly, assists in wound edge eversion Yet certain factors, such as extreme defect width, convexity of skin surface, tissue inelasticity, and low coefficient of friction associated with certain suture...
