A comparative study of suture versus sutureless circumcision: Evaluating cosmetic outcomes, wound dehiscence and infection rates

Circumcision is one of the most frequently performed surgical procedures, where optimal wound closure is crucial for healing and cosmetic outcomes. This comparative study of 50 patients evaluated isoamyl-2-cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive versus conventional suturing for circumcision wound closure. The adhesive group showed lower ASEPSIS wound scores and higher cosmetic scores on postoperative days 7 and 30 (p<0.05). Complication rates were also lower with adhesive (12%) than with sutures (20%). Isoamyl-2-cyanoacrylate proved to be an effective and cosmetically superior alternative to traditional suturing in circumcision.
