Title: tissue adhesive for wound closure in enhanced-recovery total hip arthroplasty: a prospective, randomized and controlled study.This prospective, randomized and self-controlled study aimed to present the experience of adopting tissue adhesive as adjunct to standard wound closure in total hip arthroplasty (tha) and evaluate its role and cost performance.From september 2019 to november 2019, a total of 30 patients (n=17 male, n=13 female; median age: 30.5 years; mean bmi 22.94 kg/m2) were enrolled in the study.For standard wound closure, the following were used for different layers: joint capsule and external rotator muscles were reconstructed with 2¿0 ethibond non-absorbable suture w4843 (ethicon).Deep fascia and superficial fascia were sutured with 2¿0 absorbable knotless barbed running suture and 4¿0 coated vicryl plus antibacterial interrupted suture (ethicon).Subcuticular tissue was closed with 4¿0 absorbable knotless barbed running suture (ethicon).Complaint included prolonged wound drainage in standard wound closure side in 3 patients (n=34 female with bmi of 27.13 kg/m2; n=31 male with bmi of 27.65 kg/m2; and n=37 male patient with bmi of 30.72 kg/m2).Treatment of the patients included re-suture and oral antibiotics.Wound-related evaluation scores reported for patient scar assessment score (psas) is 30.57 (mean score) and n=60/66 represents worst imaginable scar; and vancouver scar score (vss) is 5.77 (mean score).In conclusion, tissue adhesive could significantly reduce wound drainage and increase patients¿ satisfaction, which can be an ideal adjunct to standard wound closure in enhanced recovery tha.
