Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Different Closure Methods for Laparoscopic Port Sites

April 25, 2007 updated by: New York Presbyterian Hospital

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Two Different Methods of Laparoscopy Port Closure

This study wishes to compare patient satisfaction and cosmesis of two different closure methods of laparoscopic ports. One method uses tissue adhesive (Dermabond) with a deep sub-cutaneous stitch and a Band-Aid dressing. The comparison method uses a 3.o undyed vicryl transcutaneous stitch, with a Bacitracin and Tegaderm dressing.
