Repair of pressure ulcers in ischial tuberosity of 15 patients by partially de-epithelialized posterior femoral bilobed flaps / 中华烧伤杂志

Fifteen patients with sinus-type pressure ulcer in ischial tuberosity were admitted to our unit from April 2013 to April 2017, including 12 patients of unilateral pressure ulcer and 3 patients of bilateral pressure ulcer. The wounds were with infection of different degrees. The outer wound area of pressure ulcer before debridement ranged from 1.5 cm×1.0 cm to 6.0 cm×5.0 cm. Fifteen patients with 15 pressure ulcers were treated with vacuum sealing drainage for 3 to 13 days after debridement and sinus wall resection. Unilateral pressure ulcer was repaired with posterior femoral bilobed flap. One side of bilateral pressure ulcer was repaired with posterior femoral bilobed flap, and the other side was repaired with gluteus maximus muscle flap combined with local flap. The size of flaps ranged from 11.0 cm×7.5 cm to 15.0 cm×10.0 cm. Epidermis of the distal part and edge of the main flap was removed to make complex dermal tissue flap to fill the deep cavity. The other part of the main flap was applied to cover wound, and another flap of the bilobed flap was applied to cover the donor site where main flap was resected. The donor sites were sutured directly. The posterior femoral bilobed flaps in 15 patients survived after operation. Pressure ulcers of 12 patients were healed well. Incision of 2 patients ruptured and healed 15 days after second sewing. One pressure ulcer with infection under the flap healed on 16 days post second completely debridement. During follow-up of 3 to 18 months, flaps were with soft texture, good appearance, and no recurrence.

Clinical Observation of Compound Xuelian Burning Wound Ointment in the Treatment ofⅡDegree Deep Burn / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects and safety of Compound xuelian burning wound ointment in the treatment ofⅡdegree deep burn. METHODS:Using consubstantial control method,2 burn wounds(Ⅱdegree deep burn,about 10 cm×10 cm) selected from symmetric or adjacent part of extremities in 80 patients withⅡdegree deep burn were divided into treatment area and control area. Treatment area was given Compound xuelian burning wound ointment,and control area was given Sulfadiazine silver cream. Healing time,degree of pain due to dressing change,the amount of infiltration liquid,wound infection rate,the incidence of scar formation and the incidence of ADR were observed. RESULTS:The healing time of wound in treatment area was signifi-cantly shorter than in control group [(18.7±3.6)d vs.(23.8±3.1)d],with statistical significance(P0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 80 patients. CONCLUSIONS:Compound xuelian burning wound ointment in the treatment of Ⅱdegree deep burn can relieve the degree of pain due to dressing change,control the amount of infiltration liquid,promote wound healing and reduce the occurrence of scar with good safety.
