Core Tip The combined oblique and vertical everting running suture technique integrates principles of biomechanical force transmission with tissue-level biological responses to promote a dynamic and optimized wound healing process. By redistributing tensile forces along oblique and vertical vectors, this approach effectively reduces localized stress concentration while preserving microvascular perfusion at the wound margins. Such biomechanical optimization supports accurate tissue realignment, enhances healing efficiency, and facilitates favorable scar formation. Collectively, this coordinated strategy provides a mechanistically grounded and clinically adaptable pathway to improve functional and cosmetic outcomes in selected surgical settings.
