Choice of Suture Pattern for Linea Alba Closure

Abstract

<p><strong>Clinical bottom line</strong></p><p>Incidence of complications using either a simple continuous or a simple interrupted suture pattern in the linea alba is low if appropriate suture material is chosen and appropriate surgical technique is used.  More, well-planned studies with higher power are required before an evidence-based recommendation for one pattern over the other can be made.</p><br /> <img src="https://www.veterinaryevidence.org/rcvskmod/icons/oa-icon.jpg" alt="Open Access" /> <img src="https://www.veterinaryevidence.org/rcvskmod/icons/pr-icon.jpg" alt="Peer Reviewed" />
