In Search of an Ideal Closure Method: A Randomized, Controlled Trial of Octyl-2-Cyanoacrylate and Adhesive Mesh versus Subcuticular Suture in Reduction Mammaplasty

摘要

Background: An ideal wound closure system is one that is effective, consistent, and efficient. Recent studies have demonstrated the efficacy of octyl-2-cyanoacrylate and mesh (Dermabond Prineo) in the closure of surgical wounds. This study compared the use of Prineo to use of subcuticular suture closure in reduction mammaplasty.
