Comparison of Negative Pressure Wound Therapy and Conventional Therapy for Cranial Bone-exposed Wounds in Rabbits

Conclusions: The NPWT is a more effective therapy for bone-exposed wounds than conventional guaze dressing therapy. The NPWT can promote bone-exposed wounds healing by increasing collagen contents and vessels densities while reducing inflammatory cells infiltration, reducing wound infection rates, and inducing an ordered collagen arrangement.
