Effect of barbed suture vs. conventional suture on postoperative recovery and uterine integrity in patients undergoing laparoscopic myomectomy
Barbed suturing is superior to conventional suturing in laparoscopic myomectomy, effectively promoting postoperative recovery, improving uterine integrity, and enhancing long-term quality of life. Its benefits are more pronounced in patients without a history of abortion and without fibroid degeneration. Further large-scale randomized controlled trials are warranted to validate these findings and explore underlying mechanisms.
