Traction suture for canalicular lacerations.

N C Ahl1.   

Abstract

Maintaining good wound closure in canalicular lacerations is difficult because of the horizontal tension exerted by the orbicularis muscle on the wound. A method of placing a deep medial canthal traction suture through the medial orbital periosteum to aid in maintaining good wound approximation is presented.
