Abstract

A suturing device for suturing within a subject is provided. The suturing device includes an enclosure defining at least one suction port, wherein the suction port receives tissue within the enclosure to be sutured; at least one cannula arranged at least partially within the enclosure; and at least one needle arranged within the at least one cannula, wherein the needles are adapted to be pushed through the cannula and directed through the tissue within the enclosure to provide a suture to the tissue.
