This study aims to address this gap by comparing the learning curves of Adelaide- and Gan-modified Lim-Tsai repairs. Emphasizing the difference in learning curves is crucial because it highlights the tension between achieving biomechanically superior repairs, which may be challenging to many surgeons, and opting for possibly incrementally less strong but more feasible techniques.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>We organized a workshop attended by 20 medical students whose experience in surgery was limited to a few suturing exercises.
