Median sternotomy closure: a simple inexpensive effective technique.

Harold Randecker1.   

Abstract

A technique of median sternotomy closure that improves the usual rates of sternal infection, dehiscence, and re-exploration for hemorrhage is presented. This closure adds minimal time and expense to the case and diminishes the amount of blood loss and transfusion in the postoperative period.
