In first paragraph of the result section, a parenthesis should be added to Table 3. “(Table 3” should be changed to “(Table 3)”.

In Table 1, under the heading “Glue and polyester mesh groups” for Subcuticular: 4-0 monofilament poliglecaprone 25 absorbable suture should be changed to “unidirectional barbed 4-0 monofilament poliglecaprone 25 absorbable suture” (Table 1).

The footer of the Table 1 should be changed from Monocryl™ to Stratafix™ Monocryl™.

In Table 3, the body of the text in the table column 1 should be changed as follows to match the title for accuracy, “3 weeks” postoperative should be “6-weeks” and “12-weeks” should be “90 days” (Table 3).
