A suture... is a surgical stitch to close a wound. Sutures are made of nylon thread.
Suture is basically a stitch when you have a deep cut. So if you get stitches to close a wound they may tell you how many sutures they used to close the gash. Suture+stitch were as sutures mean stitches, there are no other meanings to this word. Ken...
To suture a wound is to sew or stitch it closed.
Synonyms could include to stitch, hem, or suture.
I had surgery on my ankle, and they left a stitch in. When it started hurting and draining the surgeon wanted to see me. That is when he told me that I had a suture abcess, but he did not explain what that was.
I believe its a stitch. Sutchers is another word for stitches, and it's actually spelled suture.
The doctor had to stitch up the gash in my arm, but he will remove the sutures next week.
The secondary suture line is useful to reinforce and support the primary suture line, eliminate dead space, and prevent fliud accumulation.
No. How much of a scar is left is dependant on the cut, the size and type of suture, and type of stitch. If a small size suture is used for a continuous stitch, then generally the injury heals very well. It's the interrupted stitch that leaves the "railroad" scar. If you ever have a large cut on your face, always ask for a plastic surgeon. This assures that the scar will be as minimal as possible.
Stitches on your face after an accident for example are "points de suture". Stitches in sewing would simply be "points" + the type of stitch (e.g: back stich > point arrière).
