Simple interrupted sutures are easy to place and have excellent tensile strength. They allow for easy alignment of wound edges during suturing. Simple interrupted sutures may require more time for placement than other techniques and may have a greater risk for crosshatched marks (ie, train tracks) across the suture line. The risk for crosshatching can be minimized by removing sutures early and avoiding excessive tension during suture placement.
