Surgical sutures are used to facilitate closure and healing of surgical‐or trauma‐induced
wounds by upholding tissues together to facilitate healing process. There is a wide range of …

Objective To summarize the available evidence on renorrhaphy techniques and to assess
their impact on peri‐operative outcomes after minimally invasive partial nephrectomy …

With staging accuracy of over 90%, CT imaging is the imaging of choice of renal masses. 10,
11 Enhancement of renal tumours, defined as an attenuation increase of 10 to 20 Hounsfield …

Objective: We evaluated whether single-layer renorrhaphy (SLR) without collecting system
(CS) closure is sufficient following robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN). Patients and …

Background Laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) is currently the best
approach for complex cases of choledocholithiasis or the cases of endoscopic retrograde …

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of self-retaining barbed suture in renorrhaphy
during laparoscopic partial nephrectomy by comparing surgical outcomes in a prospective …

Background Barbed sutures can avoid knot tying and speed the suture placement in the PN
(partial nephrectomy). On account of the impact on clinical outcomes are ambiguous, this …

Objective To compare the effects of barbed suture (BS) and conventional suture (CS) on
perioperative conditions and ovarian function in the excision of ovarian mature cystic …

Objective Laparoscopic knot-tying and suturing are the most difficult steps in shortening the
warm ischemia time and learning curve of laparoscopic nephron-sparing surgery. This study …

Objective To compare the barbed polyglyconate suture (BPS) with 2 commonly used
conventional sutures, this prospective randomized trial was designed. The sutures applied …
