Understanding the subtleties of suture choice and placement often makes the differente between positive and negative patient outcomes. Atlas of Suturing Techniques provides the information and insight physicians need to surgically treat a range of wounds and surgical defects - from simple lacerations to complex reconstructive surgery - with the utmost expertise. Presented in an at-a-glance format and packed with 450 photos and illustrations, this guide opens with chapters on principles of wound management and wound repair, then describes equipment, positioning, key principles, and 85+ suture techniques-complete with step-by-step instructions adjacent to drawings and photos of the techniques. Finally, it covers each area of anatomy, guiding the practitioner in which suture to use when and how to modify certain sutures in specific locations. Techniques are diagrammatically illustrated and supplemented by the online videos, and the author includes tips and pearls for each technique, as well as caveats, drawbacks, and cautions.
