“…With the current technique, the closure of the enterotomy is achieved with a double‐layer, full‐thickness, running barbed suture. Some studies have demonstrated the feasibility and safety of this type of suture, with similar complication rates of conventional suture closure [ 9 , 10 ]. In addition, in a multicentre case–control study published in 2020 with 1092 patients who underwent right colectomy with ileocolic anastomosis, a significant reduction was found on both anastomotic leak and bleeding with the running suture performed with a barbed suture thread.…”

Several studies have demonstrated the advantages of minimally invasive surgery compared with open surgery after an oncological colorectal resection [e.g. fewer surgical site infections (SSI), less use of analgesics, etc.] with equivalent results. By means of these findings, the minimally invasive approach is now considered by many groups to be the standard of care for colorectal cancer [1]. Both laparoscopic right colectomy and extended right colectomy are well-established procedures for the treatment of right-sided colon neoplasms [2]. As with right colectomy, the laparoscopic approach shows the same advantages in subtotal colectomy [3]. Robotic-assisted procedures seem to have reduced conversion rates in 'difficult cases' and facilitate the procedure by means of increased dexterity and range of motions [4]. Ileocolic anastomoses can be performed using several techniques, for example extracorporeal versus intracorporeal,

A barbed suture is a self-anchoring knotless suture hypothesized to shorten suture time and reduce the tension point of the wound. The purpose of this study was to compare the barbed suture and the interrupted suture for fascial closure in total hip arthroplasty. We retrospectively reviewed patients who underwent total hip arthroplasty from March 2014 to June 2020. We evaluated 324 cases among 274 patients consisting of 188 males and 86 females. We collected the following data: demographics, time for wound closure, the number of threads used, hemoglobin level, surgical site pain, and wound complications. Variables were analyzed for their association with closure time using multiple regression analyses between the barbed suture (the SFX group) and the interrupted suture (the Vicryl group). Mean closure time was 5.8 min lower and the mean number of sutures used was 2.2 lower in the SFX group versus the Vicryl group (P < 0.01 and < 0.01, respectively). There were no statistical intergroup differences in the mean largest hemoglobin drop, the incidence of transfusion, surgical site pain, and the incidence of wound complications. The use of barbed sutures for fascial closure in total hip arthroplasty effectively reduces the surgical time without increasing wound complications.
