Effective wound closure is key in both surgery and trauma. If closure is not complete, the wound edges can separate, providing a potential pathway for bacterial contamination leading to infection, scarring and low patient satisfaction. It could also cause annoying visual disturbances due to breach of the ideal optical system.
