Brief Summary  

Introduction:

The large array of new techniques for closure of surgical incisions can make the proper choice for closure a challenge. Data on the use of 2-octyl cyanoacrylate (adhesives) in skin closure of laparoscopic incisions is limited. Available data is generated from developed countries where cost considerations are different from those in our setting.

Aim:

This study aims to investigate the benefits and shortcomings of 2-octyl cyanoacrylate versus non-absorbable simple interrupted sutures in terms of efficacy, intra-operative time, post-operative pain, infection and cost.
