objective:in this study, we assess long-term effects of vertical dome division (v.d.d) and suture techniques in patients with bulbous nose deformity and then compare the efficiency of these methods. material and methods: in this study 70 patients with bulbous nose deformity were divided into two equal groups of a and b in which group a with suture (transdomal and interdomal) technique and grou...

Surgical reattachment of medial meniscus posterior root tear (MMPRT) with transtibial sutures can delay the presenceof medial knee joint compartment osteoarthritis. Most suture configurations are placed five mm away from the tornmargin in the meniscal substance which is already degenerated and may decrease the pull out strengths of repairconstruct. The number of meniscus penet...

Abstract Aim Small bites closure is being implemented as standard of care (SOC) for laparotomy closure, but no consensus on which suture material to use reached. The aim our study was compare biomechanical properties four different techniques SOC. Materials & Methods Fifty porcine abdominal walls were divided into five groups: 1. SOC (2/0 polydioxanone); 2. interlocking 2/0 polydioxanone; 3...

Suture techniques for reshaping the nasal tip have been in use for many decades. However, the past two decades have been the most influential in the advancement of the procedures commonly used today. This report details the origin of the major tip suture techniques and tracks their evolution through the years. The early techniques in tip rhinoplasty share a basic principle: the sacrifice of lat...

OBJECTIVE In this work, we attempted to develop a modified single-knot Kessler-loop lock suture technique and compare the biomechanical properties associated with this single-knot suture technique with those associated with the conventional modified Kessler and interlock suture techniques. METHODS In this experiment, a total of 18 porcine flexor digitorum profundus tendons were harvested and ...
