Abstract
Soft tissue and wound management after lower limb trauma is still an enormously challenging situation for every surgeon. Negative pressure wound therapy has recently been used over high-risk closed surgical incisions to decrease surgical-site occurrences, including wound dehiscence and surgical-site infections (SSIs).1 However, whether closed incision negative pressure therapy (ciNPWT) may effectively prevent postoperative complications remains undetermined. A meta-analysis of randomized controlled studies was performed to evaluate the effectiveness of ciNPWT in lowering the incidence of SSIs compared to standard wound dressing for patients undergoing surgeries for lower extremity fractures.
