Abstract

Suture techniques are essential parts of flap operations, and different suture techniques are used for different purposes. This paper describes a new suture technique for suturing a flap rised on one surface and involving only one side of the papilla. The advantages of this technique include avoidance of trauma on the surface of the papilla which was not elevated, and elimination of the need of extra anesthesia.
