Materials

This study conducted in a secondary hospital- situated in valley of kashmir, teaching hospital on patients > 18 years of age undergoing thyroidectomy.

Results

Study includes106 patients from the northern foot hills which were randomised into two groups with comparable baseline parameters.

Conclusion

Cosmetic benefit and aesthetic outcome between both techniques were similar. Sterile tissue adhesive strips had less pain and excellent scar appearance following thyroidectomy surgery.
