ABSTRACT:
A suturing instrument for surgical operations comprises a curved needle holding a needle thread and a shuttle positioned on a support and manually displaceable back and forth relative to the needle. The shuttle is formed with an element for holding one knotted end of a shuttle thread which has a required length for carrying out the surgical operation. As the shuttle is moved towards and backwards of the needle the needle thread and the free end portion of the shuttle thread form lock stitches in a wound to be sewn up.
