    Abstract:
    The suture material and the method of its application play an important role in the prevention of wound complications. With the use of Nichrome wire thread as the suture material in surgical interventions, the number of postoperative complications significantly was decreased. The Nichrome thread is also used expediently in operative interventions on patients with purulent diseases of the soft tissues, including cases after primary surgical treatment of purulent foci by carbon dioxide laser.
