The use of incisional negative-pressure wound therapy on high-risk patients with breast cancer after mastectomy
The results of this study demonstrated that the use of iNPWT significantly reduced the amount of postoperative drainage, thereby contributing to early drain removal. Furthermore, iNPWT significantly reduced postoperative seroma, flap ischaemia, and flap dehiscence compared to conventional dressings.
