Peripheral sutures can enhance the core suture strength and decrease the risk for gaping between repaired tendon ends. We present Q sutures as an alternative to conventional peripheral sutures. Compared to conventional running peripheral sutures,

Here, we present a “Q” suture technique that can be performed in tendon repair and its effects on the gap formation and tensile strength of the repaired tendons. Q suture is shown to be efficient in enhancing the tensile resistance and tendon repair strength.
