[Interrupted suture versus adhesive dressing in skin closure of pediatric inguinal hernia--a controlled randomized prospective study].
The skin closure with resorbable interrupted sutures (Dexon 6x0) was compared with adhesive plasters (Leukostrip) in a randomized prospective clinical trial with 100 children with an inguinal hernia. The same operative technique was used in both groups. There were no significant differences referring to the complication rates and the cosmetic results between both groups. Skin closure with adhesive plasters significantly saved operation-time and reduced costs. It can be recommended in cases of infantile inguinal hernias.
