Whitson suture ligature? - just me


Posted: Jun 27, 2012

Whitson ligatures as well as a Penfield freer elevators and angled curettes were used to identify a plane in the midline as well as laterally for placement of the paddle lead.

Unable to locate Whitson in my Stedman's books, and software is not installed yet. Could anybody help? This is for a laminotomy and placement of a Lamitrode lead, dictated on VOIP, so it sounds horrible... new dictator to boot.

Thanks!
