ABSTRACT:
A sutureless closure system having fabric backed plates positioned along the side edges of a wound. Arcuate shaped clips bridge the wound between plates. Each clip contains a downwardly extended pin at each end which penetrates the fabric, but not the skin, to form a secure anchor for the bridge. Each clip is further formed of a bendable material so that the chordal length of the bridge can be shortened in assembly to tighten the system.
