Regenerative Properties of Autologous Fat Grafting in a Complicated Radiation-Induced Wound

CONCLUSIONS: Chronic nonhealing wounds can provide a tremendous burden to the patient in terms of time, costs, and morbidity. Despite enduring a prolonged 19-month course involving multiple failed interventions and several wound-related infections, the patient achieved wound healing via fat grafting. Earlier intervention with fat grafting may prove helpful to patients who do not show evidence of healing via other modalities and for whom flap surgery is not an option.PMID:33914692
