简要总结
The goal of this study is to assess whether running deep wound stiches will be superior to deep interrupted stiches in body contouring surgeries in massive weight loss patients. This is a split-wound study, thereby providing an internal control within each wound. Each side of the wound will be randomized to receive one of the two suturing techniques. Patients and raters will be blinded to the suture technique used in both wound-halfs.

结局指标
主要结局
Scar cosmesis
时间窗: 6 months
The primary outcome measure of this study will be the evaluation of the scar quality. This outcome will be assessed by the Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS). The patient and four blinded raters will assess the scars.
次要结局
- Measurement of Scar Width(6 months)
- Adverse Events(6 months)
- Time spent suturing the wound(up to 24h)
- Number of suture thread needed(up to 24h)
