New knotless stitch tested to speed up common kidney surgery
NCT ID NCT06526559
Summary
This study compared two types of surgical stitches used to repair a blockage where the kidney connects to the ureter. It tested if newer 'barbed' sutures, which don't require tying knots, are faster and just as safe as the traditional absorbable stitches during minimally invasive surgery. The goal was to see if the newer method could make the operation quicker and easier for surgeons without increasing risks for patients.
