Reconstruction with secondary healing and split thickness skin graft
In secondary healed cases, medical dressings were applied once a day (chlorhexidine acetate 0.5% w/w tulle gras) taking into account the rules of asepsis and antisepsis. Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) was performed with 80 mm Hg continuous mode. In patients who underwent skin grafting, split thickness skin grafts (STSGs) were obtained with an electric dermatome under general anesthesia. After grafting, bolster dressing was applied onto the graft and short leg splint was used for seven days. Bolster dressing was removed three days after the application and wound care continued with skin pomade including 2% Mupirocin.
