ABSTRACT:
An instrument for closing, by subcutaneous suturing, an orifice made in the abdominal wall of a patient. The instrument has a piston rod (5) whose end acts on a flexible support strip (8) for needles (7), thus causing them to emerge at an exterior of the lower part (4) of a cannula (3) of the instrument underneath the abdominal wall (2), so that the needle can then penetrate into a thick part of this wall. Also, a method for suturing of orifices after a surgical operation by laparoscopy.
