Official title
A Two Part Study: An Investigator-initiated, Single-center, Single-blinded, Randomized Clinical Study Comparing Two Closure Techniques of Excised Keloids
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This investigator initiated study, single-blinded, parallel, randomized study will be conducted in subjects with 2 or more keloids similar in size and duration on a similar area of the body. The response of the closure techniques will be evaluated by clinical and instrumental assessments. Each qualified subject will be assessed and the keloids will be randomly assigned to the Clozex or suture closure. One keloid will be surgically excised and the surgical wound generated will be randomized to be closed with Clozex. A second keloid will be surgically excised and the surgical wound generated will be randomized to be closed with sutures. The inflammation index and the keloid recurrence rate at each surgical wound closure site will be compared.
