Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

The purpose of this research study is to determine if closing a surgical wound differently is better than the procedure that is currently used. The wound will be closed with what is considered "tertiary intent." This means, rather than leaving the wound open, the wound will be partially closed after surgery, and then completely closed 4-7 days after surgery. The investigators also want to see how this new wound closure process affects your quality of life.
