The improvised atraumatic suture: a cost-reducing technique, not only for the tropics?

S Freudenberg1, S Samel, J Sturm, N Trede.   

Abstract

A simple technique to produce your own atraumatic suture is described. All that is needed is a simple injection needle and any kind of thread.The thread is introduced into the cavity of the needle and fixed by squeezing its end after having broken the hub. This method is very easy to apply and extremely economical.
