Objective:To compare the incidence of superficial surgical site infection after posterior approach procedures between simple interrupted suture group and hybrid mattress suture group.Methods: A number of 38 patients who underwent posterior approach procedure were randomized into two groups. First group was sutured using simple interrupted suture while the second was using hybrid mattress suture. Bivariate statistical analysis was performed using Chi square test and Mann Whitney test. The superficial surgical site infection incidence was evaluated and recorded for both groups. Results:A superficial surgical site infection was found in 26.3% of the simple interrupted group and no infection was found in the hybrid mattress group. Statistical analysis showed a p value of 0.046. Conclusions:Compared to simple interrupted suture, hybrid mattress suture has less superficial surgical site infection in posterior approach for spine surgery.

“…The hybrid mattress suture judiciously balances the pros and cons of vertical and horizontal mattress suturing and is executed with speed. [3] Wu et al . employ a combination of vertical and horizontal mattress on opposite sides of the defect, a technique suited to closing unequal size margins.…”

“…To overcome these disadvantages, execution techniques have been modified to maximize the everting effects of the stitch yet facilitate execution of the stitch. These include a combination with simple interrupted sutures, placement of interrupted vertical mattress sutures between the loops of running sutures, a shorthand vertical mattress stitch, running vertical mattress sutures, a running looped mattress suture, a hybrid mattress suture, a continuous oblique mattress suture, and a Rousso stitch 5–11 …”
