dc.description.abstract | We present the "needle-splint" technique, a microsurgical suturing technique that enhances micro-suturing technique, while ensures finer apposition and vessels walls eversion during the placement of sutures in microvascular anastomosis. This report demonstrates the usefulness of this technique in simple interrupted, continuous-interrupted, or multi-loops microsurgical suturing. It further allows direct visualization of the intra-wall-edges space and intimal sutures surface and could be utilized as a safety stabilizer to errors as it allows optimal vessels alignment while the needle curvature is acting as a "pusher" to separate the posterior wall during knot tying. | en_US |
