“…This study also showed that 41.1% of patients were in the age group of 21-30 years, followed by age group 31-40 years (17.8%), 18-20 years (16.7%), 41-50 years (15.5%) and 51-60 years (8.9%). Patel et al [21] found that highest patients (38.71%) in 21-30 years age group followed by 31-40 years age group (24.19%). In the present study 66.7% of patients were male and 33.3% of cases were female with a ratio of male to female of 2:1.…”

“…12 Corrugate rubber drain is a type of open passive drain which causes less pain to the patient, is effective in eliminating dead space, with rubber inducing intense reaction allowing tract formation, help appose skin and quick wound healing. 12 In a retrospective study by Patel et al 13 described corrugated drain as easy to use, inexpensive and readily available, which also proved significant reduction of wound complication, increased patient compliance, and reduced length of hospital stay.…”

Base of penile abscesses are uncommon genitourinary tract infection. We present a case of a 31 years old man with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus, whom presented with scrotal pain and scrotal swelling for 1 week duration. Physical examination revealed a bulging mass at the base of penis. A high index of suspicion is needed to look for possible causes such as extension of abscess from perineum or anorectal, sexually transmitted disease, tuberculosis, history of penile instrumentation or injection and trauma. A large abscess at the base of penis was diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging. He was successfully treated with transperineal incision and drainage, systemic antibiotic therapy, wound care and strict diabetic control. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of isolated base of penile abscess. The description of case, comprising the clinical presentation and management, is discussed in detailed with emphasis on the treatment approach.

Surgical Site Infection and wound healing are reported more commonly in abdominal surgeries. Wound dehiscence following SSI is a significant concern. Subcutaneous negative suction drainage will reduce the incidence of SSI and wound dehiscence by draining seroma, promoting wound healing. Objective: This study's objective is to assess and evaluate the impact of subcutaneous drains on the incidence of surgical site infections following an emergency laparotomy procedure. Methodology: A total sample size of 50 patients within the inclusion criteria for 12 months was taken. Patients are followed for 15 days after surgery and are divided into 2 groups as Group A (study group): Emergency surgeries were done with subcutaneous drains. Group B (control group): Emergency surgeries were done without subcutaneous drains. Central randomization was performed. Results: 50 patients were included in the study, with 25 in each group. Hematoma formation was significantly higher among group B (24.0%) than among group A (4.0%). Seroma formation (p-value =0.03917), SSI rate (p-value =0.039), and wound dehiscence/burst abdomen (p-value =0.0415) were more in group B than in group A. The mean wound healing time (days) and mean hospital stay (days) were significantly more in group B. Conclusion: Surgical site infection is commonly due to abdominal cavity infection rather than nosocomial infection. The subcutaneous suction drainage tube is an effective method of abdominal wall closure in cases of peritonitis compared to conventional primary skin closure without drain as it significantly reduces the incidence of wound infection, dehiscence, wound secondary suturing and duration of hospital stay in SSI.
