sutureS24-920540 (soo'chur) [L. sutura, a seam] 1. The line of union in an immovable articulation, as those between the skull bones or the articulation itself. Synonym: sutura See: raphe; synarthrosis2. An operation in which soft tissues of the body are united by stitching them together.3. The thread, wire, or other material used to stitch parts of the body together.4. The seam or line of union formed by surgical stitches.5. To unite by stitching.absorbable surgical sutureA sterile strand prepared from collagen derived from healthy mammals or from a synthetic polymer. This type of suture is absorbed and thus does not need to be removed. apposition sutureA suture to accurately approximate the edges off divided tissues.approximation sutureA suture for apposing divided tissues. See: apposition suturebasilar sutureThe suture between the occipital bone and sphenoid bone that persists until the 16th to 18th year as the anteroposterior growth center of the base of the skull; also called spheno-occipital synchondrosis.bifrontal sutureThe suture between the frontal and parietal bones.biparietal sutureThe suture between the two parietal bones.buried sutureA suture placed so that it is completely covered by skin or other surrounding tissue.button sutureA suture in which the threads are passed through buttons or other prosthetic material on the surface and tied to prevent the suture material from cutting into the skin.catgut sutureA suture material made from the sterilized submucosa of the small intestine of sheep. It is eventually absorbed by body fluids. Treatment with chromium trioxide (chromic catgut) or other chemicals delays the absorption time. coaptation sutureA preliminary suture to approximate wound edges before definitive closure.cobbler's sutureA suture in which the thread has a needle at each end. Synonym: double-armed suturecontinuous sutureThe closure of a wound by means of one continuous thread, usually by transfixing one edge of the wound and then the other alternately from within outward in a variety of techniques. whip stitch Synonym: running suture; uninterrupted suture; whip stitchcoronal sutureA suture between the frontal and parietal bones. Synonym: frontoparietal suturecranial sutureOne of the sutures between the bones of the skull.dentate sutureAn osseous suture consisting of long and toothlike processes between the involved bony segments.double-armed sutureCobbler's suture.ethmoidofrontal sutureA suture between the ethmoid and frontal bones.ethmoidolacrimal sutureA suture between the ethmoid and lacrimal bones.ethmosphenoid sutureA suture between the ethmoid and sphenoid bones.false sutureA suture of opposing bones in which fibrous union has not occurred.figure-of-eight sutureA suture shaped like the number 8. It is used to repair round or elliptical defects. frontal sutureAn occasional suture in the frontal bone from the sagittal suture to the root of the nose. Synonym: mediofrontal suture; metopic suturefrontolacrimal sutureA suture between the frontal and lacrimal bones.frontomalar sutureA suture between the frontal and malar bones.frontomaxillary sutureA suture between the frontal bone and superior maxilla.frontonasal sutureA suture between the frontal bones and the nasal bones.frontoparietal sutureCoronal suture.frontotemporal sutureA suture between the frontal and temporal bones.glover's sutureLocking suture.Halsted suture See: Halsted, William Stewartharelip sutureA twisted figure-of-eight suture used in the surgical correction of harelip.harmonic sutureA suture in which there is simple apposition of bone.intermaxillary sutureA suture between the superior maxillae.internasal sutureA suture between the nasal bones.interparietal sutureSagittal suture.interrupted sutureA suture formed by single stitches inserted separately, the needle usually being passed through one lip of the wound from without inward and through the other from within outward.lambdoid sutureA suture between the parietal bones and the two superior borders of the occipital bone. Synonym: occipital suture; occipitoparietal suturelocking sutureA continuous suture in which the needle is passed through the loop of the preceding stitch. Synonym: glover's suturelongitudinal sutureSagittal suture.maxillolacrimal sutureA suture between the maxilla and lacrimal bone.mediofrontal sutureFrontal suture.metopic sutureFrontal suture.nasomaxillary sutureA suture between the nasal bone and superior maxilla.nonabsorbable sutureA suture made from a material that is not absorbed by the body, such as silk, polymers, cotton, or wire. These sutures ultimately are removed or are placed in tissue deep to the skin where their presence will have minimal long-term consequences. occipital sutureLambdoid suture.occipitomastoid sutureA suture between the occipital bone and the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. The occipitomastoid and lambdoid sutures meet at the asterion. Synonym: temporo-occipital sutureoccipitoparietal sutureLambdoid suture.palatine sutureA suture between the palatine bones.palatine transverse sutureA suture between the palatine processes and superior maxilla.parietal sutureSagittal suture.parietomastoid sutureA suture between the parietal bone and the mastoid portion of the temporal bone.petro-occipital sutureA suture between the petrous portion of the temporal bone and the occipital bone.petrosphenoidal sutureA suture between the petrous portion of the temporal bone and the ala magna of the sphenoid bone.purse-string sutureA suture entering and exiting around the periphery of a circular opening. Drawing the suture taut closes the opening. quilled sutureAn interrupted suture in which a double thread is passed deep into the tissues below the bottom of the wound, the needle being withdrawn so as to leave a loop hanging from one lip of the wound and the two free ends of the thread from the other. A quill, or more commonly a piece of bougie, is passed through the loops, which are tightened upon it, and the free ends of each separate thread are tied together over a second quill. The purpose of a quilled suture is prevention of tearing when tension becomes greater. Polymeric wound bridges have supplanted the use of quills and catheter segments. See: relief suture; button suturerelaxation sutureA suture that may be loosened to relieve excessive tension.relief sutureA suture used primarily in abdominal wound closures to bring large margins of the wound close together to relieve tension and to provide protection to the primary wound closure; more commonly called a retention suture. These sutures are made of heavy-grade material and are tied over wound bridges or tubes of latex to avoid injury to the wound. right-angled sutureA suture used in sewing intestine. The needle is passed in the same direction as the long axis of the incision, and the process is repeated on the opposite side of the incision, the suture being continuous. running sutureContinuous suture.sagittal sutureA suture between the two parietal bones. Synonym: interparietal suture; longitudinal suture; parietal sutureserrated sutureAn articulation by suture in which there is an interlocking of bones by small projections and indentations resembling sawlike teeth.shotted sutureA suture whose ends are passed through a perforated shot that is then compressed tightly over them, instead of tying a knot.silk sutureA suture made of silk. It may be twisted, braided, or floss. sphenofrontal sutureThe articulation between the greater wing of the sphenoid bone and the frontal bone.sphenoparietal sutureThe articulation between the greater wing of the sphenoid bone and the parietal bone. The pterion of the skull is a region at the posterior end of this suture. sphenosquamous sutureAn articulation of the great wing of the sphenoid with the squamous portion of the temporal bone.sphenotemporal sutureA suture between the sphenoid and temporal bones.squamoparietal sutureA suture between the parietal bone and squamous portions of the temporal bone.squamosphenoidal sutureA suture between the squamous portion of the temporal bone and great wing of the sphenoid bone.squamous sutureThe junction of the temporal and parietal bones.subcuticular sutureA buried, (usually) continuous suture in which the needle is passed horizontally under the epidermis into the cutis vera, emerging at the edge of the wound but beneath the skin, then in a similar manner passed through the cutis vera of the opposite side of the wound, and so on until the other angle of the wound is reached.temporo-occipital sutureOccipitomastoid suture.temporoparietal sutureThe suture between the temporal and parietal bones.tension sutureA suture used to reduce the pull on the edges of a wound.twisted sutureA suture in which pins are passed through the opposite lips of a wound and material is wound about the pins, crossing them first at one end and then at the other in a figure-of-eight fashion, thus holding the lips of the wound firmly together.uninterrupted sutureContinuous suture.vertical mattress sutureAn interrupted suture in which a deep stitch is taken and the needle inserted upon the same side as that from which it emerged, and passed back through both immediate margins of the wound. The suture is then tied to the free end on the side the needle originally entered. This suture is primarily used in closing the skin. wire sutureA suture of varying gauges of metal (usually stainless steel) that may be used in a wide variety of applications, including wound closure, intestinal repair, and the repair of sternotomies. |
