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.
