[Vacuum assisted closure therapy improves early postoperative lung function in patients with large sternal wounds].

I Kutschka1, P Frauendorfer, W Harringer.   

Abstract

Vacuum assisted closure of sternal wounds is a sound strategy for patients with severe poststernotomy mediastinitis and sternal bone necrosis. As a bridging therapy to reconstructive surgery it provides an adequate temporary stabilization of the thorax. It enhances lung function and reduces pulmonary complications.
