Sutures, commonly called stitches, are sterile surgical threads used to repair cuts (lacerations). They are also used to close surgical incisions.Sutures are medical devices used by doctors and embalmers (especially surgeons) to stitch together skin, internal organs, blood vessels, and all other tissues of the body that have been broken by injury, incision, or surgery. Similar to other wound closure methods, surgical sutures also create an opportunity for the wound to heal. The tissues are stitched together until they are healed enough to withstand pressure.

Sutures, commonly known as stitches by the public, involve a variety of tools and techniques used by medical professionals to close wounds by binding body tissues together tightly. They promote healing while reducing the risk of infection. Achieving closure is important because the skin plays a vital role as a barrier to harmful bacteria.Suture have Absorbable and Non-Absorbable two type.
Sutures that lose a significant amount of their tensile strength over a period of weeks or months are classified as absorbable sutures.
Absorbable
(PGA)Polyglycolic acid
(PGAR)Rapide Polyglycolic acid
(PGLA)Polyglactin 910
(PDO or PDS)Polydioxanone
(CC)Chromic catgut
Non-absorbable sutures come in both synthetic and natural forms and are “characterized by their difficulty in biodegrading.” They are not only strong, but also popular because they are less likely to cause inflammation and resist infection.
(SK)Silk braided
