A laser suture was a medical tool used to suture a wound via laser technology.[1] In 22 BBY,[2] Neimoidian Royal Guardswoman Ruug Quarnom utilized laser sutures to help mend a korgee beast's wound, which she had shot with her sniper rifle in order to keep it from attacking Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi.[1]

Behind the scenes

Laser sutures appeared in the 2022 novel Brotherhood, written by Mike Chen.[1]

  1. 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 1.5 Brotherhood
  2. Brotherhood is set between the beginning of the Clone Wars and the Battle of Christophsis, as the novel's plot involves Anakin Skywalker becoming a Jedi Knight, a rank he attained between those events. As Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates both events to 22 BBY, Brotherhood, including Ruug Quarnom's aid to the korgee beast, must be set in that year.
