Discussion

Randomized clinical trial shows similar wound complications and pain management in children after surgery.

No significant differences in postoperative pain between mass and layered closure methods were found, indicating safety in both approaches.
Surgical site infection occurred in 11 out of 111 children, showing a 9.9% complication rate that emphasizes the need for careful postoperative care.
Single-center randomized clinical trial assessed 111 children aged ≤5 years, comparing two closure techniques for abdominal surgery.
Parents should expect potential for complications over one year, highlighting the importance of regular follow-up after the procedure.

Ituen et al. (2025) studied this question.
