A new skin suture technique for multiple Z-plasty.
A new skin suture technique was developed for multiple Z-plasty. In this technique, the wound of multiple Z-plasty is closed by several continuous locking sutures. With use of this technique, the operative time is reduced, and suture removal is facilitated to alleviate pain and discomfort on the part of the patient.
