Furrier's seam

Furrier's suture is one of the most popular sutures in medicine, which is used to connect the edges of a wound. It is continuous in nature, that is, all the threads that are used to connect the wound are applied to its edges without interruption.

When applying a furrier's suture, the needle is passed through both edges of the wound, and the thread on the surface of the wound lies at an angle, and inside - perpendicularly. This allows you to create a strong and reliable seam that will not diverge in the future.

The furrier's seam has a number of advantages over other types of seams, such as interrupted seams or seams using staples. Firstly, it is more durable, since all the threads are connected without breaks. Secondly, it is less noticeable on the body, since the thread is located under the skin and not on its surface. Thirdly, it heals faster because it does not irritate the skin and does not interfere with the wound healing process.

Applying a furrier's seam requires certain skills and experience. However, if you have experience working with medical instruments, you can easily master this method. It is also important to choose the right thread and needle for suture to ensure the strength and reliability of the connection.
