Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
diathermy group
Patients' incisions are completed using the unipolar diathermy from Whiteline until we reach the parietal peritoneum (cutting the Whiteline then coagulating until reaching the peritoneum). The used diathermy frequency was 50-70 MHz.
electrosurgery
incisions completed using use the unipolar diathermy from Whiteline till we reach the parietal peritoneum (cutting the Whiteline then coagulation till reaching the peritoneum). The used diathermy frequency was 50-70 MHz.
scalpel
patients had their incisions completed using the surgical scalpel till we reach the parietal peritoneum.
