    ROLE OF INCISIONAL VACUUM THERAPY IN ENDOPROSTHETIC BONE RECONSTRUCTION SURGERY
    (2023) BAPTISTA, Andre Mathias; CAMARGO, Andre Ferrari De Franca De; CAIERO, Marcelo Tadeu; TORRES FILHO, Jose Saint Clair De Sousa; NARCISO, Jorge Henrique; SILVA, Marcela Rocha Dias
    Reconstructive surgery with endoprostheses is the chosen method for treating bone malignancies. Postoperative infections are frequent complications, and their treatment involves prolonged hospital stays and antibiotic therapy. Among the advancements aimed at reducing the rate of postoperative infection, the use of incisional negative pressure therapy (iNPT) has shown promising results, with no reports in the literature regarding its use in patients with such conditions. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of iNPT in reducing postoperative complications in surgeries for resection of bone tumors associated with modular endoprosthesis reconstruction. Methods: Retrospective case series of 16 patients diagnosed with osteosarcoma, who underwent resection and reconstruction with endoprosthesis associated with iNPT during the postoperative period. Follow-up was performed for a period of six months, and the evaluated outcomes were the incidence of postoperative infection and complications of the surgical wound. Results: The use of iNPT for a postoperative period of seven days resulted in only three (18.7%) bone malignancies.
