The clinical application of incisional negative pressure wound therapy in severe subcutaneous emphysema: A case series.
Trauma Case Reports 2024 June
Severe subcutaneous emphysema (SSE) is the presence of a high-volume accumulation of air in the subcutaneous tissue caused by traumatic injuries, infections, iatrogenic causes, or can also manifest spontaneously. A variety of techniques have been reported, with varying levels of success. We present a multicenter case series detailing four patients who developed SSE and were treated with Incisional Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (INPWT). All patients significantly improved with the INPWT treatment within 6 to 48 h. Our experience suggests INPWT is a valuable procedure available for treating SSE and recommend prospective randomized studies be conducted to determine targeted patient selection and clinical application of INPWT among the SSE patient population.
