摘要:
A surgical needle for use in a circular needle applier comprises a leading end, a trailing end, and an arced body between the leading and trailing ends. The body has a medial face and a lateral face. A plurality of steps on the body are adapted to be engaged by a circular needle applier. The steps are formed by plastically deforming the body without removing material. A length of suture is connected to the trailing end.
