Abstract
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the surgical technique and review the therapeutic effect of vacuum sealing drainage combined with ileostomy treating patients of traumatically buttock skin necrosis. METHODS: 26 patients with buttock wounds were dressed and 6-12 days later, buttock skin necrosis boundaries were clear and debridement was performed. General surgeons were invited to perform the ileostomy. Thorough debridement was conducted and vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) devices were used to cover buttock wounds. Debridement and VSD were operated every 5-7 days until the granulation tissue of buttock wound was fresh. Then epidermal skin graft from thigh was performed to cover the granulation wound. About 3 months later after skin graft survival completely, the ileum was reversed by general surgeons and the patients recovered defecation using anus. RESULTS: The granulation tissues of all patients were fresh after debridement and VSD 2-3 times. In 20 cases, transplanted epidermal skin grew well. In six cases, necrosis was observed at the margins of the flap and further debridement and skin graft were conducted. During the follow-up period of approximate 6 months, the flaps grew well and the patients defecated normally from anus. CONCLUSIONS: Treating traumatically cutaneous necrosis of buttocks with vacuum sealing drainage and ileostomy can gain good therapeutic effect.
