Kuznetsova-Lensky (hemostatic) suture is a surgical method that is used to stop bleeding in case of marginal liver injuries. It was developed in 1970 by Russian surgeons Kuznetsova and Lensky and is still used today.

After applying a suture to the liver, it is folded in half, which creates additional strength and ensures reliable stopping of bleeding. The seam is then secured with additional stitches to ensure stability.
