Abstract

Key Clinical MessageNegative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) aided in the management of complex soft tissue injury in a 14‐year‐old girl by managing moisture, reducing oedema, and stimulating wound granulation less than 2 months after the accident and prepared the skin for skin grafting, thus successfully saving the limb.AbstractThis case study describes the use of a tubular bandage encompassing the whole limb to deliver successful NPWT in the treatment and reconstruction of extensive soft tissue damage extending from the right lower extremity to the hip in a 14‐year‐old female.
