Stitches vs. staples: which leaves women feeling better after cancer surgery?
NCT ID NCT07327125
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at two ways to close the surgical cut after gynecologic cancer surgery: using staples or separate stitches versus a continuous stitch under the skin. The goal is to see which method helps women feel better about their body image and mood. About 140 women will answer questionnaires before surgery and at 1, 3, and 6 months after to track their feelings and scar satisfaction.
