Clinical aspects of full-thickness wound healing.

Abstract:

:Optimal management of full-thickness wounds requires a thorough knowledge of wound-healing principles and practices. In the absence of underlying disease, almost every full-thickness wound will heal with minimal intervention; however, the process can be enhanced by judicious wound management. The first clinical decision to be made is whether to repair the wound or to allow it to heal by second intention. This decision is guided by a host of objective and subjective factors. Reconstruction options include primary closure, flaps, and grafts. Materials to aid reconstruction, including the introduction of tissue adhesives, continue to evolve. Both primary and secondary intention wounds are aided by occlusive dressings and adjutants. A plethora of wound-healing adjuncts have been developed to aid wound healing in diseased states, and a working knowledge of their use is beneficial in managing all full-thickness wounds.
