| Knotting and suturing is must learn skill for any laparoscopic surgeon, gynaecologists and urologist. Without knotting skill one can not expect to perform advanced surgery. Prof. Mishra's Mishra Knot was published in World Journal of Laparoscopic Surgery in 2007 and since then hundreds of surgeon all over world is using this knot. OBJECTIVE: In this study, Extra corporeal knot-tying techniques of different knots have been evaluated and compared, in the previous study conducted there has been a scarcity of objective scoring systems in these comparison studies. At World Laparoscopy Hospital using an objective scoring system, we aimed to compare 3 types of popular extracorporeal knots: Roeder's Knot, Mishra's Knot and Tayside knot for their Knot Quality and their rates of slippage. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Fifty surgeon who came for training at World Laparoscopy Hospital tied 100 knots in the 3 knot categories. The knots tied were evenly distributed amongst the 50 surgeons with each surgeon contributing at least 30 knots. These knots were tied in a nonrandomized fashion.In the lab of World Laparoscopy Hospital and forces were measured using a tensiometer and an objective scoring system, the Knot Quality Score of different knot, which is used to compare the knot's strength and rates of slippage. RESULTS: In this study median Knot Quality scores of the 50 groups were not all the same. The median Knot Quality Score in this study and variance for the extracorporeal Mishra's knot group was 0.34 and 0.0069, respectively. For the Roader's knot group, and Tayside knot group the median Knot Quality Score and variance was 0.28 and 0.00017, respectively. Follow-up analysis revealed that the Knot Quality Score medians (0.32 versus 0.28) of the extracorporeal Mishra's Knot and Roader's groups were significantly different (Proscopic suturing and knotting techniques and is available in more than 16 countries, worldwide. Laparoscopic Intracorporeal and Extra corporeal knot tying in minimal access surgery is an advanced skill. Mastering this skill is a difficult process with a long learning curve under the supervision of expert laparoscopic surgeon. Intra corporeal as well as extracorporeal suturing and knotting is essential to advanced laparoscopy and is a rate-limiting step in many procedures. This book is supplemented by very high quality DVD which shows all the important clinical aspect of laparoscopic knotting and suturing in video. After watching this video and carefully going through the text of principle of laparoscopic suturing and knotting, every surgeon will realized how much easy this skill is if tied with keeping in mind all the principles.
