“…Compared with traditional closed lavage drainage, vacuum sealing drainage has good airtightness and is characterized by sufficient, thorough and efficient drainage. It prevents the drainage fluid from communicating with the outside world to prevent poor infection, thus reducing the chance of infection [18,19]. And we analyzed the SAS, SDS, and SF-36 scores before and after treatment.…”

“…The main reason is that the Ilizarov technology is strongly stable through three-dimensional fixation. In addition, 1.5-2.0mm Kirschner wire has good elasticity, which can increase the strength of fixation, provide excellent axial stress stimulation to patients' limbs, accelerate the formation of new blood vessels at the fracture end of patients, and promote fracture healing [17,18]. Compared with traditional closed lavage drainage, vacuum sealing drainage has good airtightness and is characterized by sufficient, thorough and efficient drainage.…”

BackgroundThe aim of this study was to analyze the efficacy of vacuum sealing drainage combined with Ilizarov bone transport technique in the treatment of tibial traumatic osteomyelitis and risk factors for postoperative pin infection.Material/MethodsWe enrolled 78 patients with tibial traumatic osteomyelitis admitted at the First People’s Hospital of Kashgar from January 2015 to September 2017 and treated with vacuum sealing drainage combined with Ilizarov bone transport technique.ResultsAfter combined treatment, SAS and SDS scores decreased significantly, while SF-36 scores increased significantly. Comparisons showed that there were significant differences in the scores of patients after treatment (P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that there were no significant differences in gender, BMI, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, COPD, smoking index, alcohol abuse history, or residence (P>0.05). There were significant differences in age, fracture type, fixation type, pin loosening, and indwelling time between the 2 groups (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic analysis showed that age, fracture type, fixation type, pin loosening, and indwelling time were independent risk factors for pin infection. Age, fracture type, fixation type, pin loosening, and indwelling time are independent risk factors for pin infection in patients with tibial traumatic osteomyelitis.ConclusionsCombination of vacuum sealing drainage with Ilizarov bone transport technique can effectively improve the condition of tibial traumatic osteomyelitis, improve the quality of life of patients, and reduce the occurrence of adverse emotions of patients. Age, fracture type, fixation type, pin loosening, and indwelling time are independent risk factors for pin infection in patients with tibial traumatic osteomyelitis.

“…Wound healing problems after renal transplant can manifest in many forms, from superficial skin dehiscence to complete fascial dehiscence and allograft exposure. Fascial dehiscence with exposure of the renal allograft is a rare (2%–6%)1 2 but devastating complication which threatens the survival of the graft and patient 3…”

“…Renal transplant patients, by the very nature of their immunosuppressive therapies, are at an increased risk of wound breakdown and infection 3. Traditional management options for abdominal fascial dehiscence and allograft exposure can include: secondary intention healing with sterile dressings with or without operative debridement, primary closure with mesh, skin grafting or flap coverage.…”

“…Since its introduction in the 1990s, NPWT has been increasingly used to treat open wounds, burns and ulcers, among other conditions 3. Negative-pressure wound therapy (NPWT) increases wound perfusion, reduces oedema, stimulates granulation tissue, decreases bacterial colonisation, removes wound exudate and stimulates biochemical pathways within local cells 4.…”

Use of negative-pressure wound therapy and split-thickness skin autograft to cover an exposed renal transplant

Exposure of a renal transplant through the abdominal wall is a rare event. A search of the literature reveals only six documented cases which used skin autograft for coverage, with none reported since 1981, and none which used negative-pressure wound therapy (NPWT) to prepare the recipient bed. This case report demonstrates that NPWT followed by split thickness skin graft is a reconstructive option which is feasible in patients who are at high risk for surgical complications in prolonged flap surgery.
