The goal of the study is to evaluate and compare patient perception of two different methods of skin closure following head and neck surgery. Currently, the standard of care includes closing with surgical staples or subcuticular sutures, and is decided at surgeon's discretion. Both methods are used in accordance with the standard of care at Boston Medical Center, depending on individual physician preference. There are also factors that may influence choice of closure at time of surgery, such as operative time, or wound characteristics. For instance, if the operative time was already extending longer than expected, to decrease patient anesthesia time, the surgeon may opt for staples, since they are faster to place than sutures. Also, although a rare scenario, if there was excessive blood loss during the surgery or the surgeon has reason to suspect post-operative hematoma development, they will likely opt for staple closure, to facilitate easy post-operative access to the wound if necessary. In the literature, incidence of hematoma as a post-operative complication to head and neck surgery is stated as 3-4.7%.
