Description

The ability to suture in laparoscopic surgery is necessary less frequently than in conventional surgery, yet this ability is essential in certain critical situations, such as providing tissue support, maintaining tissue closure, and in creating certain surgical anastomoses. Although the principles of suturing and tying knots in endoscopic surgery are identical to those in conventional surgery, major modifications in technique are necessary as a result Extra Corporeal Dundee Jamming Knot is very useful. It can be prepared outside and then it can be introduced inside the abdomen to use as continuous suturing. The termination of this knot is by Aberdeen termination.
