Abstract:

Objective

To study the effect of Zip Surgical Skin Closure device on scar hyperplasia after surgical resection of hypertrophic scar.

Methods

Medical records of 33 patients with hyperplastic scar resection collected during January 2018 to December 2018 in Department of Burns Surgery, First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University, were retrospectively studied. Combined treatment group inclueded patients with surgery removal of the scar and Zip Surgical Skin Closure device at the same time. Surg-only group inclueded patients who only received surgery removal of the scar therapy.In the combined treatment group, a Zip Surgical Skin Closure device was used to fix the incision around the incision after suturing the skin, so that there was no tension in the incision. In the Surg-only group, the scar was removed and conventional suture was performed. The vancouver scar score(VSS) of scar, the recurrence of scar and the reoperation rate of patients 6 months after treatment were analyzed. The data was analyzed by t test and chi-square test.

Results

The VSS score [ (2.143 ± 0.678) points] after 6 months of combined treatment group was significantly better than that of the Surg-only group[ (6.842 ± 0.668) points], and the difference was statistically significant (t=4.833, P<0.0001); the scar recurrence rate of the combined treatment group (50.00%) was significantly lower than that of the Surg-only group (94.7%), and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=8.784, P=0.003). The rate of reoperation of the combined treatment group (7.14%) was also significantly lower than that of the Surg-only group (52.63%), with a statistically significant difference (χ2=5.687, P=0.0171).

Conclusion

The application of Zip Surgical Skin Closure after scar resection can significantly reduce the scar hyperplasia by reducing the tension around the incision.
