    Wound Closure with 2-octylcyanoacrylate

    Wound Closure with 5-0 Fast Absorbing Gut

    Arm Description

    One side of the patient's wound defect will be assigned to wound closure with 2-octylcyanoacrylate liquid bonding agent).

    One side of the patient's wound defect will be assigned to wound closure with 5-0 fast absorbing gut sutures.

    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Assessment of Scar on the Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale
    After surgical procedure, half of the subject's wound will be with 2-octylcyanoacrylate, while the other half is closed 5-0 fast absorbing gut sutures. After 3 months, subjects will return to clinic for evaluation of the cosmesis of both types of closure techniques.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    Measurement of Scar Width
    The width of the scar will be measured 1 centimeter from the midline on both sides. There is no defined width that is considered satisfactory or not satisfactory. The measurements will be compared between subjects.
    Assessment of Complications
    Noting the presence or absence of bleeding, dehiscence, infection or spitting sutures.

    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    The purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of 2-octylcyanoacrylate during repair of linear cutaneous surgery wounds improves scar cosmesis compared to wound closure with 5-0 fast absorbing gut.
    Detailed Description
    The purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of 2-octylcyanoacrylate during repair of linear cutaneous surgery wounds improves scar cosmesis compared to wound closure with 5-0 fast absorbing gut. The investigators will use a split wound model, where half of the wound is treated with 2-octylcyanoacrylate and the other half is repaired with 5-0 fast absorbing gut. Three-months post-surgery, the scar will be measured via the physician observer scar assessment scale, a validated scar instrument. The scar width, and adverse events will also be recorded.
