(Fig.
There are a variety of instruments that exist that
allow for the utilization of electrocautery during
laparoscopic procedures. Illustrated here is the
spatula, in which the metal shaft is insulated so as
to protect the surrounding tissue. Suction cannulae come in variety of sizes. The tip doubles as a
suction and irrigator when connected to the
appropriate adaptor and tubing. This adaptor usually has two buttons: red for suction and blue for
irrigation. The combination of suction and the
blunt tip can also be utilized to dissect tissue.

Trocars andObturator (Fig.2.23)
Once inserted through the abdominal wall, trocars (commonly referred to as ports) are left in
place to allow for the passage of laparoscopic
instruments. Once this rst port is placed, either
through open or Veress technique, the laparoscope can be introduced intra-abdominally to
help visualize the placement of subsequent ports.
To place a port, a twisting motion along with constant, steady pressure is applied to the trocar
with the obturator insert. This allows the pointed
obturator tip to dissect through the abdominal
wall layers. The tip should be visualized with the

laparoscope as it enters into the abdominal cavity
so as to avoid injury to organs, such as the bowel,
liver, or spleen. The obturator is removed once
the trocar is in place, and a laparoscopic instrument can then be introduced. Ideally, the trocar
should be able to freely move in any direction so
as to allow for an optimal operative eld.
Port Closure Device (Fig.2.24)
Large port sites, particularly 10mm or greater, usually require that the fascia be closed after port
removal. Port closure devices are particularly useful when it would be difcult to close the fascial
defect by hand, such as in an obese patient. The
Carter-Thomason system uses a cone-shaped obturator that is placed into the port site. A free suture is
grasped by the tip of the suture passer and then
introduced into one of the two holes in the cone.
The laparoscope is used to visualize the sharp
suture passer as it pierces one side of the fascial
defect. Once the sharp tip is in the abdomen, the
suture is released, and the suture passer is removed
and then placed into the opposite hole in the cone.
Again, the sharp tip is visualized as it pierces the
opposite side of the defect and grabs the free suture
to pull it back out so the free ends of the suture can
be tied down to close the fascial defect.

3.1 Sutures andNeedles
3.1.1 Historical Background/
Introduction
3.1.1.1 Suture History
Sutures were used by Egyptians and Syrians as
far back as 2000 BC. The materials used as
suture have evolved through the years and continue to evolve today. Some of the historical
materials used for suture include linen, cotton,
hemp, ax, tree bark, wire made of gold, silver,
or steel, animal or human hair, vegetable bers,
animal tendons and intestines [1]. Today, suturing material is so rened that there are even
suture and needles designed for a singular
purpose!
Catgut has been used since the fteenth century. It was named after the string chords of a
musical instrument called a “kit” [1]. By the
twentieth century, cotton, linen, and silk were
used regularly. Historically, silk was established
as the premier suture material because it was
noted to heal quickly with few disadvantages,
the result of security even with a small knot. The
main problem with silk was its persistence in

wounds and tendency to cause suppuration.
With the advent of antisepsis, Joseph Lister
applied this system to suture material. Believing
that germs embedded in the silk suture were
responsible for infection, he began sterilizing
the strands in carbolic acid. When he continued
nding evidence of inammation at surgical
sites, he began to believe that it was the rough
material that made up the ber and he searched
for a better material [2].
It was Lister who reintroduced catgut reinforced with chemical coating and antisepsis into
practice and is responsible for the development
of sterile absorbable sutures. He studied and
wrote about the properties and outcomes of his
innovation extensively. Due to his work, catgut
suture gained popularity for its strength, exibility, and absorbability toward the end of the nineteenth century [2].
Catgut suture had numerous properties that
were problematic: variability in strength, unpredictable rate of absorption, intense inammatory
reaction, a nidus for infection, tendency to fray,
and weakening of knots. William Halstead spoke
out strongly against using catgut and by the early
twentieth century, silk had once again become
the suture material of choice even for vascular
anastomoses [1].
It wasn’t until 1960 that experimentation with
synthetic materials began in orderto develop a
suture with more desirable properties. The rst
synthetic suture material (Dexon) was introduced

in 1970. Dexon was a polyglycolic acid polymer
similar to catgut, but with better performance
with respect to tissue reactivity and a more uniform response to tissue, strength, and rate of
absorption. The second absorbable suture to be
introduced in 1974 was polyglactin (more commonly known as Vicryl) [1].
3.1.1.2 Needle History
Much like suture material, needles are not specic
to surgery and are one of man’s oldest tools. Eye
needles were rst recorded in use in 50,000–
30,000 BC and there are remnants of needles made
of bone, antlers, and tusks dating from as far back
as 20,000 BC. Needles manufactured from metalsemerged around 4000 BC, but the application
of needles in surgery began in 600 BC.Initially,
suture needles were straight and generally handheld. Because anatomic structures had to be
deformed to allow for entry and exit of the needle,
they were primarily used for skin closure [1].
As one could imagine, needle puncture was not
uncommon. It was the simultaneous realization that
transmission of infection could occur with needle
puncture and Lister’s introduction of aseptic technique that prompted a need for “no- touch” needles
[1]. Ambroise Paré designed curved needles. His
hand-held needle was further rened by JacquesLouis Reverdin in the nineteenth century and was
popular for over a hundred years. In the 1920s, it
was discovered that a strong connection between
the suture and needle could minimize tissue trauma
[3]. This led to the development of “atraumatic”
needles that form the basis for the modern needle
used today. The variety of needle sizes, shapes,
points, and eyes grew tremendously and expanded
the functionality of the needle in surgery.
Suture and needles are the most basic surgical
equipment. Our aim is to provide information on
the physical properties of suture and needles so
that residents feel comfortable calling for the
proper suture for a task.

point type, needle curve, needle length, and needle color. These properties will be described in
detail in the following sections. By the time you
nish reading this chapter, you should be
equipped with the knowledge to not only navigate this information, but also to condently
select an appropriate suture and needle combination for use.
3.1.2.2 Suture
Suture materials differ based on their construction, size, and ability to be “absorbed” or undergo
degradation after a certain amount of time within
the body. When thinking about absorbability, ask
yourself “How long do I need the suture to keep
its strength?” Absorbable sutures are broken
down by one of two mechanisms and lose a
majority of their tensile strength within 60 days
[4, 5]. The two mechanisms by which suture
material is absorbed areproteolysis and hydrolysis. Natural materials like chromic catgut are
degraded by proteolytic enzymes and this process occurs quickly. Synthetic materials like
polyglycolic acid, polyglactin, polydioxanone,
and poliglecaprone (just to name a few) are broken down by hydrolysis, which occurs
moreslowly. Absorbable suture is useful for tissue that requires wound support from a few days
(skin, subcutaneous tissue, muscle) to weeks or
months (fascia). Table3.1 contains details regarding the tensile strength and time to absorption for
the most commonly used/available absorbable
suture materials [5].
Non-absorbable materials are not biodegradable. They remain where they are placed and ultimately are walled off by broblasts. They should
be used when suturing collagenous tissues that are
strong and heal slowly (tendon) and when longterm stability is required (prosthetic grafts).
Table3.2 contains details regarding the properties
of the most commonly used/available nonabsorbable suture materials [5]. The disadvantage
of non-absorbable suture is that it can form chronic
draining sinuses and suture granulomas. For this
reason, avoid using it above the fascial layer.
The next common subdivision of suture materials is construction. Construction refers to the
number of strands that each suture is made from.
Monolament suture is made of a single strand
compared to multilament suture which is created from multiple strands being twisted or
braided together. Monolament construction
generates less tissue reaction and harbors fewer
bacteria. It can be more difcult to handle
because of its elasticity (more likely to return to
original shape and length after being stretched)
and memory (the ability to return to its original
shape after tying). Monolament suture also possesses less knot strength and loses tensile strength
at any point that it is grasped by an instrument.
Multilament or braided suture is more difcult to pass through tissue and more likely to cause
tissue injury. For all types of suture, but especially
for multilament suture, it is best practice when
“running” a suture to draw the strand through the
tissue as much as possible to limit en masse movement through multiple entry and exit points.
Braided suture is liked for its ease of handling and
tying. Suture construction is single handedly the
most important property to determine the number
of knots that should be created to secure the suture
(see Tables 3.1 and 3.2) and the length of suture
that should be left attached to the knot when cutting suture. In general, a 4–5mm tail should be left
for monolament suture and 2–3 mm should be
left for silk or braided synthetic suture.
A third grouping of suture material is natural
versus synthetic. It answers the question: "How
much tissue reaction is this material going to
cause?" Regardless of its composition, all suture
material is a foreign body and may elicit an
inammatory reaction. However, synthetic materials are less reactive compared to natural bers,
which tend to produce an intense inammatory
reaction. The amount of inammation generated
by a suture can either promote or hinder the healing process.
Suture size is another important physical
property. Sizing is standardized according to
U.S. Pharmacopeia (U.S.P.) regulations and
based on the diameter necessary to generate a
certain tensile strength. Table 3.3 details the
U.S.P. suture size and the corresponding
diameters in millimeters. It varies somewhat
with material absorbability and whether it is
natural or synthetic. The conventional nomen-

where more zeroes indicate a smaller size.
The smaller the suture size, the less tensile
strength it has. Tensile strength refers to the
maximal stress that a strand can withstand
before breaking. While breaking suture is
undesirable, it is better to break the suture
when it is in your direct focus so that you can
replace it rather than have it break later and
having it go unnoticed.
The loss of tensile strength over time should
not be confused with the rate of absorption. Loss
of tensile strength occurs upon implantation of
suture, with tying (knotted sutures have twothirds the strength of unknotted sutures), and
with exposure to tissue environment (4–13%
reduction after being soaked in sodium chloride
solution for 24hours). Tables 3.1 and 3.2 list loss
of tensile strength for commonly used suture
[6–11].
The nal elements found on the suture package that describe the suture material are length
and color. Length is important when you are
working in a deep space because you want the
strands to be long enough to be manipulated
outside the cavity or when running along the
length of an incision because you don’t want to
run out of suture before you reach the end.A
good rule to guide the length needed for a "running" closure is to have a suture that is 4 times
the length of the incision that you are closing.Sutures come in various colors, but other
than knowing you should not use dyed suture at
the skin level, it is not of much consequence.
3.1.2.3 Needles
Needles are necessary for carrying suture material through tissue. The goal is to achieve this
with as little trauma to the tissue as possible.
Needles must be sharp to avoid resistance within
the tissue, rigid enough to resist bending, and
ductile to allow for bending before breakage. To
expand on these points, grasping the tip of a needle with forceps or a needle holder should be
avoided as this dulls the point and increases the
resistance on your next pass through the tissue. A
needle that is too weak will bend easily resulting
in decreased control of the needle once it is
inserted into tissue and possibly damage the surrounding tissue. If a needle is bending, it means
too much force is being appliedor that the size of
the needle driver is too large relative to the
needle.
The basic anatomy of all surgical needles
(depicted in Fig.3.2) is the same; they each have
a point, a body, and a swage (the end which is
attached to suture material). The types of needle
points are tapered, cutting, reverse cutting, tapercut, and blunt. Tapered needles (Fig. 3.3a) are

parts of a surgical needle are the swage, body, and point.

bite depths and varies with the curvature of the needle

cone shaped and suitable for sewing soft tissues
(fat, muscle, blood vessels, gastrointestinal viscera, and fascia). Cutting needles (Fig.3.3b) have
a triangular body with a sharpened cutting edge
on the inside curve. A reverse cutting needle
(Fig.3.3c) has a sharp edge on the outside of the
needle curve. Generally, cutting needles are suitable for inserting sutures in the skin. They create
holes in the tissue that are larger in diameter than
the suture itself which precludes their use in tissue where leakage can occur. Reverse cutting
needles are stronger than a conventional cutting
needle and are preferentially used when minimal
tissue trauma is desired. Blunt needles (Fig.3.3e)
are dull and are reserved for suturing highly vascularized solid organs (i.e. liver).
Most modern surgical needles are afxed to
suture via a swage. The swage is the thickest but
weakest part of the needle and holding it here
often results in distortion of the needle. It also
causes more tissue trauma because the swage is
wider than the suture material itself. The other
type of needle end is an eye where the suture
must be manually secured to the needle. Unlike a
swaged needle, an eyed needle causes minimal
trauma to the tissue. Swaged sutures can be permanent or controlled released. Compared to a
permanent suture, which must be cut from the
needle, controlled released sutures can be
detached with a quick, straight tug on the needle
while holding the suture strand taut. In this way,
the needle “pops-off” the strand. This feature
allows for efcient interrupted suturing.
The needle body is the portion designed for
grasping the needle with a needle holder. Several
important properties of the needle body are

length. The gauge is the diameter or thickness of
the needle and varies from thousandths of an inch
to hundredths of an inch. The chord length
(Fig.3.2)is the arc distance between swage and
point and determines the bite width. Needle curvature is measured by what proportion of a circle
is completed and ranges from 0 (straight) to
5/8 (Table 3.4). A more curved needle requires
less lateral movement for advancement. This feature can be taken advantage of when suturing two
edges as the exposure of a wound decreases
