First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two methods of closing the wound after stoma reversal surgery in children: a purse-string technique and the usual linear closure. Researchers will track infections, healing time, and hospital stay in 108 children aged 8 months to 12 years. The goal is to see which method leads to fewer complications and faster recovery.
