A Comprehensive, Evidence-Based Literature Review of the Surgical Treatment of Rectus Diastasis

Although suture type absorbability does not affect complication or recurrence rates, a double-layer suture closure can decrease surgical complications. The pooled analysis of complication and recurrence rates can help improve informed consent and patient education.
