Objectives: Surgical-site infections (SSIs) are the most common complication after stoma closure. We propose a new method for wound closure using the subcutaneous large-bite buried suture (SLBS) technique and a closed suction drain (CSD). In this study, we aimed to investigate the efficacy of a combination of the SLBS technique and a CSD to prevent superficial SSIs following stoma closure. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients who underwent stoma closure between January 2019 and July 2022. Primary closure of the stomal site was performed using the SLBS technique and a CSD for wound closure. The CSD was placed until postoperative day 7. The occurrence of superficial postoperative SSIs was also evaluated. Results: In total, 67 patients were included in the study. Within 30 days postoperatively, nine patients (13%) developed superficial SSIs. Considering the type of stoma, only 1 (2%) of 45 patients with ileostomy showed superficial SSIs, whereas 8 (36%) of 22 patients with colostomy showed superficial SSIs. Univariate analysis of the risk factors associated with the occurrence of superficial SSIs revealed that colostomy (p < 0.001) and hand-sewn anastomosis were significant risk factors (p = 0.019). Multivariate analysis of the risk factors associated with the occurrence of superficial SSIs revealed that colostomy was significant risk factor (p = 0.003). Conclusions: This new method of stoma closure is feasible for preventing superficial SSIs, especially in ileostomy closure.
