Novel 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...
متن کاملAvoiding 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 کاملeComment. The Berglin apical stitch: a simple technique to straighten things out in atrial fibrillation surgery?
is simply tied down and checked for bleeding. The rest of the operation is then performed in the normal fashion. In our experience, the Berglin apical stitch is a very simple and ingenious trick of the trade to create a smooth surface in the posterior LA that facilitates performing safe transmural ablation lesions in this area. This may in turn increase the antiarrhythmic efficiency of the proc...
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 کاملSimple technique for evacuation of traumatic subcutaneous haematomas under tension
BACKGROUND Traumatic subcutaneous haematomas are common cases in the accident and emergency department. Occasionally, urgent evacuation is required to prevent skin necrosis. METHODS We present a simple and safe technique, based on a principle similar to liposuction to evacuate traumatic subcutaneous haematomas under tension. Instruments readily available in the accident and emergency departme...
