A Novel Tube-Drainage Technique of Negative Pressure Wound Therapy for Fistulae after Reconstructive Surgery

Our NPWT applies continuous negative pressure inside the fistula only and dramatically promoted fistula healing. This approach may work by cleaning the fistula and promoting mucosal surface adhesion. It is particularly effective when the tissue surrounding the fistula is soft due to fresh tissue transfer.
