Rectus diastasis repair with and without mesh at 1 year: randomized clinical trial ➡️ doi.org/10.1093/bjs/znaf231 This #RCT compared plication supported by mesh (PSUM) with suture plication for rectus diastasis (RD) repair in 84 women 📈PSUM resulted in greater inter-rectus distance (IRD) reduction, while both techniques improved health-related quality of life, motor control, and low back function 💡PSUM enhances IRD reduction and provides added linea alba plication stability, with the complication rate similar between groups #SoMe4Surgery #MedTwitter #SurgEd #Surgery @RCPSGTrainees @aecirujanos @SEIQuirurgica @iss_sic #MedicalTechniques @BJSAcademy @young_bjs @BJSOpen @des_winter @evanscolorectal @robhinchliffe1 @bplwijn @MalinASund @nfmkok @TejedorPat @paulo_sutt @PVaughanShaw @JJEarnshaw @juliomayol @ksoreide @eurohernias #hernia
