For PT repairs, the FDS was woven through 3 incisions in the FDP and joined with a double-loop suture at both ends of the overlap and 4 evenly spaced mattress sutures between the ends. Both epitenon sutures were combined with a modified Kessler core suture. Only 2–3 mm of each strand of the embedded cross-stitch suture which ran across the tendon repair site and horizontal strands that grasped the tendon were exposed on the tendon surface. Figure 9. The most commonly used superficial sutures were nylon (51%) and polypropylene (44%), and the most common absorbable suture was polyglactin 910 (73%).

However, it is sufficient to insert a cross stitch which enters and leaves the tissue on one side, is carried across the vessel and enters and leaves the tissue on the other side. The authors in this report have primarily used. Again, it is important to grasp the skin and evert it slightly using a fine toothed forcep, and the needle holder is rotated into a pronated position in preparation for piercing the skin. METHODS: Inclusion criteria for this prospective, comparative, interventional study were: (1) one surgeon, (2) central round nonmechanical excimer laser PKP without previous surgery, (3) FUCHS (n = 35) or KC (n = 52), (4) standardized graft size (7.5-8.0 mm) and technique, 16-bite double running cross-stitch suture. The needle is then picked up, reloaded and inserted in, the epidermis on the opposite side of the anchoring, knot approximately 4 mm from the initial stitch (far), and 2 mm from the wound edge. Fifty-four percent of wounds were repaired by primary closure, 20% with local flaps, and 10% with skin grafting, with the remaining 15% left to heal by second intent (10%) or referred for repair (5%).
