[Surgical sutures. Principles and materials].
This article begins by a brief review of the advantages and modalities of the sutures. Then, the choice of the instrumentation (needle-holders, pliers and scissors) will be discussed. The suture material by itself (needles, threads) is studied. A description of the physical and biological properties of the different threads allows their comparison. The author's choice is the conclusion of this paper.
