Surgical suturing is the technique of stitching together tissue or skin using needles and thread (sutures) to close wounds or surgical incisions and promote proper healing. Surgeons, physicians, and trained medical staff learn various suturing patterns and materials suited to different tissue types and wound conditions. Mastery of suturing is a fundamental skill taught early in surgical and medical training, often practiced on simulated tissue before use on patients.
