Interventions
PROCEDURE

Medullary-only suturing (single-layer)

Only the base layer (medulla) is sutured after tumor excision, Cortical suturing is omitted. Hemostatic agents are applied.

DEVICE

Suture

Synthetic absorbable monofilament suture (Caproyl™ 3-0).

PROCEDURE

Medullary and cortical suturing (two-layer)

Both medullary and cortical layers are sutured after tumor excision, Performed with robotic assistance using absorbable sutures. Hemostatic agents are applied

DEVICE

Suture

Synthetic absorbable monofilament suture (Caproyl™ 3-0), absorbable braided suture (Vicryl™ 0)

DEVICE

Hemostatic Agent

Hemostatic agents (e.g., Bleed Stp Plus, Surgicel® Fibrillar, Hemopatch®).
