Dossiled Suture (Pig. 191).—This is a variety of interrupted suture, in which the thread is doubled, and at one end carries a Httle ball or dossil of lint or oakum. Passed through one edo-e of the wound from vnthout inward, it is brought outside of the wound, and cut the necessary length. Another similar thread is passed through the other border in a similar way, and, when cut, both threads are tied together in the center of the wound. This suture is often used for the purpose of holding in place the substances (wadding, oakum, etc.) that may be placed in the wound, or to prevent the return of a hemorrhage. It is a strong adjuvant of other hemostatic measures. 5. Quilled Suture (Fig. 192).—This is formed by a series of in- terrupted stitches, supported on each side by a short piece of qiuU or wood, or metallic pin, which must be longer than the great axis.
