Summary

\- Evaluate the role of VAC in decreasing the time needed for soft tissue coverage and definitive fixation in open IIIB tibial fractures

Conditions

  • Open Fracture of Tibia

Interventions

DEVICE

vacuum assistant closure

Expose the open wound bed to negative pressure. This pressure removes edema or hemorrhage, mechanically pulls on the wound edges, decreases in wound surface area, improves circulation, and enhances proliferation of granulation tissue that filled the soft tissue defect.
