sutures - Irrigation was done and we placed interrupted 2-0 Monocryls - salicestar
Posted: Jul 17, 2010
Irrigation was done and we placed interrupted 2-0 Monocryls within the aneurysm sac itself to cause collapse of the soft tissue. The skin was closed with 2-0 Prolene and 4 (for endair) sutures for eversion.
Sorry. I've got nothing with a certainty. - Oracle
[ In Reply To ..]I know there's a four suture eversion technique they use for vascular anastomoses. I can't think of a suture type that comes close to Endair, and the only thing I can think of is maybe he's saying four anterior sutures.
