Risk Factors and Management of Wound Dehiscence in Abdominal Surgery
Main Article Content
Abstract
Wound dehiscence is a serious surgical complication, particularly in abdominal surgery, with potentially life-threatening consequences. This bibliographic review comprehensively examines the epidemiology and clinical significance of wound dehiscence. It delves into the theoretical framework, including its definition, risk factors, complications, and management strategies. The discussion section highlights emerging approaches and future directions in the management of wound dehiscence. In conclusion, the article underscores the importance of evidence-based practices in addressing this complex surgical challenge.
