Carbuncle management: skin-sparing saucerization followed by delayed primary closure is a new treatment modality: a case series
The skin-sparing saucerization technique followed by delayed primary closure offers a promising alternative to conventional methods, particularly for patients with underlying health conditions. This approach reduces hospital stays, enhances wound healing, minimizes dressing changes, and allows for an earlier return to daily activities, ultimately improving patient quality of life. Further studies with larger sample sizes are necessary to establish standardized protocols and confirm the broader efficacy of this method.
