Summary

Participants will be randomly assigned to suture-based wound closure (n=50) or tissue adhesive-based wound closure (n=50) with two-component skin adhesive Glubran Tiss 2®. The outcomes will be assessed during the follow-up period at intervals of 2, 6, and 12 weeks postoperatively. A scar assessment will be using the POSAS (Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale) and cosmetic VAS (Visual Analog Scale). The VNRS (Verbal Number Rating Scale) will used to assess pain.

Conditions

  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Interventions

PROCEDURE

two-component skin adhesive, Glubran Tiss 2

After subcutaneous stitches a two-component skin adhesive, Glubran Tiss 2®, will be applied. G Each subject will receive 0.35 mL of Glubran Tiss® in the open wound, and before bandaging, subjects rested for 20 minutes for a polymerization process.

PROCEDURE

skin is stitched with transcutaneous nylon sutures

The skin is stitched with transcutaneous nylon sutures (polypropylene-polyethylene monofilament, non-absorbable surgical suture) 4-0
