ABSTRACT:
A surgical suturing instrument has a first arm and a second arm which start with their proximal ends from a connection part and contain intermediate area attached to distal ends. A part of the intermediate area is occupied by a guide member which is designed and mounted in such a way that a suture thread introduced transversely in proximal direction into the intermediate area is guided by means of the guide member along the first arm limb until it has passed a guide point, and the thread, upon the return movement in distal direction, is guided by means of the guide member essentially along the second arm. The end of the surgical thread is secured to the guide member. The other end of the surgical thread is attached in the front zone of a surgical needle.
