Suture Secondary Late

Suture Secondary Late is a surgical procedure that is used to close wounds that have been infected or damaged for a long time. This type of suture is placed on the wound 15-30 days after excision and mobilization of the wound edges, which speeds up the healing process.

The Secondary Late suture is more complex and requires more experience and skill on the part of the surgeon than the primary suture, which is usually placed immediately after surgery. However, this type of suture has several advantages, such as faster wound healing and fewer complications.

To place a Secondary Late suture, the surgeon must complete the following steps:

1. Excise the skin and granulation scars around the wound. This is necessary to remove infected tissue and provide good access to the wound.
2. Mobilize the wound edges and remove damaged tissue. This allows for good access to the wound and reduces the risk of re-infection.
3. Suture the wound using special threads and tools. The suture should be placed in such a way as to ensure reliable closure of the wound and prevent re-infection.
4. After suturing, the wound should be treated with an antiseptic and covered with a sterile bandage. This will help prevent re-infection and speed up the wound healing process.
5. For several days after suturing, it is necessary to monitor the condition of the wound and, if necessary, carry out additional procedures.

Overall, the Secondary Late suture is an effective method of wound closure that can speed up the healing process and reduce the risk of complications. However, its successful implementation requires a high level of professionalism and experience on the part of the surgeon.

A secondary (scaphoid) suture is a very old surgical technique used for fractures, bruises, injuries, as well as in cases of severe burns - sometimes skin scars do not heal, leaving unpleasant sensations or unsightly scars for life. The incision is closed using sutures: primary (this is the main suture), to connect the edges of the wound; secondary (scaphoid), it is called conventionally; the edges of the wound are connected several weeks or months after skin grafting.

The suture is formed from various sutures: interrupted non-absorbable; U-shaped secondary; U-shaped boat-shaped structure (then it is commonly called a convergent boat). This is a suture that is used as a secondary suture from applied sutures that cover the entire length of the wound.
