Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 10

Abstract

What is the best type of closure or the best technique for closing wounds? The answer is straightforward: the one that meets the need of the hour. Historically man has utilized his intelligence and the materials that were known to him to close and protect wounds. Although sutures are considered the “gold standard” for wound closure, they sometimes produce a less favorable result than staples, tapes, and adhesives.
