Abstract

Intra-Wound Continuous Negative Pressure and Irrigation Therapy (IW-CONPIT) is a technique we reported in 2007. This technique was applied to 18 cases of wound infection and diastases that occurred within one year after abdominal surgery. The therapy was performed after debridement of necrotic tissue and suture removal. Ten cases healed without any further surgical maneuver, while 8 cases required skin graft. In all cases, prompt healing was obtained, which confirmed the utility of this therapy.
