Comparative Study of the Use of a Suturing System and Titanium Clips.

There is a need for secure and easy methods for suturing in laparoscopic surgery, no matter whether vessels are to be ligated, two structures sutured together, or the cystic duct is to be occluded in cholecystectomy. Laparoscopic suturing can be done with a suture, using automatic sewing devices or clips. Improper ligation of a vessel for example can result in bleeding, which is more difficult to treat in a laparoscopic procedure than in an open procedure.
