Comparative Outcomes of Reinforced Tension‐Line Sutures Versus Standard Closure Techniques in Patients Undergoing Laparotomy: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The reinforced tension‐line suture (RTLS) technique distributes mechanical stress more evenly than traditional closure when closing a laparotomy wound, potentially reducing incisional hernia (IH) risk. We aimed to compare outcomes of RTLS versus standard closure techniques in patients undergoing laparotomy. Methods Systematic search
