Somma-Krayla Bone Show

Somma bone suture is a historical method of treating bone fractures in which the edges of the broken bone were held together with metal staples or wires. This method was developed in the 16th century by the Italian surgeon Giovanni Battista Canano.

The somma-crile bone suture became widespread in Europe during the Renaissance and was used until the 19th century, when it was replaced by more modern methods of treating fractures using plaster casts. The main advantage of this method was its simplicity and availability of materials. Disadvantages were a high risk of infection and malunion of bones.

In general, the somma-crail bone suture played an important role in the history of traumatology, laying the foundations for surgical methods for treating fractures. Despite its limitations, this method has saved limbs and the lives of many patients over several centuries.
