Background: Apposition of wound edges by sutures provides a temporary scaffold and tension support for healing. We have developed a novel tissue sealing technology, photoactivated tissue bonding (PTB) that immediately cross-links proteins between tissue planes thereby sealing on a molecular scale.
Objectives: To determine the effectiveness of PTB for superficial closure of skin excisions and to compare the results to standard epidermal suturing.
Methods: A split-lesion, paired comparison study of 31 skin excisions was performed. Following deep closure with absorbable sutures, one-half of each wound was superficially closed with non-absorbable nylon sutures ...
