Extended negative pressure wound therapy-assisted dermatotraction for the closure of large open fasciotomy wounds in necrotizing fasciitis patients
BACKGROUND Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a rapid progressive infection of the subcutaneous tissue or fascia and may result in large open wounds. The surgical options to cover these wounds are often limited by the patient condition and result in suboptimal functional and cosmetic wound coverage. Dermatotraction can restore the function and appearance of the fasciotomy wound and is less invasive ...
متن کاملDynamic wound closure for decompressive leg fasciotomy wounds.
Decompressive fasciotomy for preservation of lower extremity function and salvage is an essential technique in trauma. The wounds that result from the standard two incision four-compartment leg fasciotomy are often accompanied by a wide soft tissue opening that in the face of true compartment syndrome are often impossible to close in a delayed primary fashion. We describe a technique using a de...
متن کاملTreating Fasciotomy Wounds with Negative Pressure Wound Therapy with Instillation and Dwell Time (NPWTi-d)
Acute compartment syndrome (ACS) is a serious complication of lower-extremity trauma caused by accidents or post-procedure complications. ACS is characterized by increased pressure within the compartment, resulting in reduced blood flow, tissue hypoxia, and tissue necrosis. Fasciotomies to relieve pressure and debridement of necrotic tissue comprise primary treatment. My purpose is to present i...
متن کاملComparison of Primary Wound Closure with Vacuum Drainage and Delayed Closure in Perforated Appendicitis
Open wound managment after perforated appendicitis has been a common practice but recently, primary closure has been advocated to reduce costs and morbidity. For comparing delayed closures against primary closure with vacuum drainage, a randomized experimental study was designed. in Kerman. Sixty patients with perforated appendicitis divided randomly in two groups and evaluated on day of discha...
متن کاملAssisted closure of fasciotomy wounds
INTRODUCTION Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) and vessel loop assisted closure are two common methods used to assist with the closure of fasciotomy wounds. This retrospective review compares these two methods using a primary outcome measurement of skin graft requirement. METHODS A retrospective search was performed to identify patients who underwent fasciotomy at our institution. Patien...
