[Current suture techniques in gynecology and obstetrics].
The first part addresses general principles such as foreign body reaction, strength of sutured tissues, direction of the incision, knot technique and common suture materials. It is recommended to use fine-gauge sutures, as required by tissue strength. The continuous closure of a midline vertical incision is faster than an interrupted one or a transverse incision. In the second part, different closure techniques are discussed: closure of a vertical incision of the skin, uterine closure, episiotomy and repair of the anal sphincter.
