Abstract

Background: CS is not standardized in the same way as other operations. When matching wound closure methods, wound problems rates, short- and long-term aesthetic outcomes are analyzed. Aim: To compare cosmetic result of subcutaneous fat suture re approximation versus non-suture closure of subcutaneous fat in females undergoing elective cesarean delivery Subject & Techniques: This is a prospective randomized controlled trial research, is performed on females undergoing cesarean section at El Hussein University Hospital. Study included 250 women underwent caesarean section. The patients were randomized in 2 groups using computerized randomization system. Results: There is important statistical variation among 2 categories concerning closure time, POSAS, VSS scores, occurrence of complications and scar appearance. Conclusion: This research showes that there is a substantial variation in amount of time required for caesarean section closure whether the subcutaneous tissue was closed vs not closed. Regarding patient satisfaction and aesthetic results, subcutaneous tissue closure was better than non-closure. So long as it had improved cosmosis and patient satisfaction, subcutaneous tissue closure may be employed on patients having caesarean section.
