Background: Recent advances in care aware that inadequate management of the healing process in wounds and the development of bacterial infections leads to increase morbidity. Health professionals have progressively recognized the value of choosing suitable dressings to manage wounds particularly in developing countries. Honey has been used for thousands of years as a wound dressing and considered as biologic treatment due to its multiple bioactivities related to healing process. Objective: The aim of this case report is to demonstrate that Argania Honey dressing improve the healing process in a venous leg ulcer. Method: Pure raw Argania honey (Argania spinosa, endemic tree in southwestern of Morocco) with no additives, pasteurization, or manipulation was used and provided from local beekeepers. A mechanical debridement process was achieved previously to the application of honey dressings to a venous leg ulcer of a 67-year-old woman affected by type II diabetes for 11 years. Results : The Argania honey dressing accompanied by mechanical debridement process demonstrated a rapid recovery and complete healing of the wound for 12 weeks approximately (79 days). Conclusion: This Moroccan honey (Argania) experienced for the first time in venous leg ulcer management may represent a good alternative to treat other types of wounds. Further investigations by using Argania honey dressing are required to explain its effect and the mechanisms involved in the improvement of healing process.

Background: Chronic wounds and injuries represent a significant burden for health care professionals due to the difficulties related to their management. The selection and use of appropriate dressings have become essential for successful treatment. Honey has been used for thousands of years as a biological treatment because its bioactive components contribute to the healing process. Objective: This case report aims to demonstrate the efficiency of Argania honey dressing on pressure ulcers. Case Presentation: The wound care was achieved using pure raw Argania honey with no additives, pasteurization, or manipulation. A previous mechanical debridement process was necessary before the application of honey dressings to a right heel bedsore in a 69-year-old man who suffered an ischemic stroke. Results: This case report describes for the first time the complete healing of a right heel bedsore using Argania honey dressing. Bedsore demonstrated rapid recovery and complete healing over approximately 18 weeks (124 days, between June and October 2021). Conclusion: With the rise of natural medicines and some pathologies that are resistant to conventional treatments, Argania honey can be an asset for its therapeutic effects on the skin, but more studies are needed to explain and identify the complexity of mechanisms involved to ensure this complete healing process.
