RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Hematomas are potential postoperative complications that may arise from Pfannenstiel incisions. They usually either resolve spontaneously or are drained depending on their extent. Major risk factors such as obesity and diabetes may lead to superimposed complications and further worsen the outcome. CASE: A 73-year-old woman presented with a large subcutaneous hematoma 10 days after total abdominal hysterectomy done through a Pfannenstiel incision for endometrial cancer. The hematoma progressed and led to extensive subcutaneous fat necrosis. Extensive debridement was required, and negative pressure wound therapy with gauze was used to allow second intention closure. Satisfactory healing was achieved after 82 days of treatment without skin grafting. CONCLUSION: This case highlights the usefulness of gauze-based negative pressure wound therapy, as well as the need for a multidisciplinary approach in taking care of such complex wound complication.


Contexte : Les hématomes sont des complications postopératoires qui peuvent en venir à se manifester à la suite du recours à des incisions de Pfannenstiel. Habituellement, ils se résorbent de façon spontanée ou font l'objet d'un drainage (en fonction de leur ampleur). Des facteurs de risque importants (comme l'obésité et le diabète) pourraient mener à des complications surajoutées et aggraver davantage l'issue. Cas : Dix jours après avoir subi une hystérectomie abdominale totale par incision de Pfannenstiel en raison d'un cancer de l'endomètre, une femme de 73 ans a présenté un gros hématome sous-cutané. L'hématome en question a évolué et a mené à une nécrose étendue du tissu adipeux sous-cutané. La mise en œuvre d'un débridement de grande envergure s'est avérée nécessaire et la plaie a été traitée par pression négative au moyen de gaze afin de permettre une cicatrisation par deuxième intention. Une guérison satisfaisante a été constatée après 82 jours de traitement, sans greffe cutanée. Conclusion : Ce cas souligne l'utilité du traitement de plaie par pression négative au moyen de gaze, ainsi que la nécessité d'avoir recours à une approche multidisciplinaire au moment d'assurer la prise en charge de complications de plaie d'une telle complexité.

RESUMO

Two cohorts of 10 patients who had a corrective osteotomy for a malunited fracture of the distal radius with a pi-shaped plate and screw fixation were compared retrospectively to see whether the outcome was affected by using a nonstructural cancellous bone graft compared with a trapezoidal corticocancellous bone graft. The indications for the osteotomy, surgical techniques, and postoperative rehabilitation were consistent and all surgical procedures were done by the same surgeon. All osteotomies healed without loss of the surgical correction. Follow-up radiographic and functional results were comparable between groups. Use of a nonstructural, cancellous only bone graft-appealing in its relative simplicity-seems safe and efficacious.
