Abstract:
The new method of negative pressure wound therapy not only greatly improves the level of treatment on hard healing wounds in plastic surgery, but also widely used in the field of major surgery. The clinical efficacy of this technique in prevention of surgical incision complications, treatment of postoperative wound infection and fissure, treatment of postoperative infection and exposure of various implants, treatment of special burn wounds, and temporary closure of abdominal cavity after open abdominal surgery were reviewed. The impact of negative pressure wound therapy with instillation for infected wounds and the application of endoscope assisted negative pressure therapy in the treatment of complications after hollow viscera anastomosis were also reviewed. This review provides a new idea for the treatment of various refractory wounds and wound complications.
