Role of Surgical Debridement in Wound Management
Main Article Content
Abstract
A wound is a disturbance of the skin's and soft tissue architecture's normal structure and function. Prior to further wound treatment, wounds with devitalized tissue, contamination, or leftover suture material benefit from debridement. Wound base preparation allows for the orderly healing and regeneration of injured tissue and may improve the performance of specialist wound care products and sophisticated biologic tissue replacements. There are now many approaches for treating individuals with Dupuytren's contracture; each case must be carefully selected to provide the most benefit, limit morbidity, and avoid recurrences.
