Surgical Outcomes of Simple Interrupted Versus Running Epidermal Sutures in Full-thickness Skin Graft Placement
NCT06233812
This study is recruiting at 1 US site in 1 state, according to its ClinicalTrials.gov record last updated .
Summary
The study hypothesis is that the use of running epidermal sutures in full-thickness skin graft (FTSG) placement for patients undergoing dermatologic surgery (Mohs micrographic surgery or excision) is non-inferior to the use of simple interrupted sutures with respect to cosmetic outcome. This will be a split-scar (within-person) study, in which half of each participant's scar will receive the study intervention (running epidermal sutures), with the other half receiving the control intervention (simple interrupted sutures).
