Wound healing outcomes following treatment with synthetic hybrid-scale fiber matrix after resection of soft tissue tumors or infections
CONCLUSION: The current case series demonstrated that the SHSFM can support granulation tissue formation over exposed structures as a bridge to skin graft or can completely reepithelialize large wounds without skin grafting. The SHSFM offers a novel treatment option for post-resection surgical wounds.PMID:38479428 (Source: Wounds)

Use of high-frequency electrical stimulation in gastrocutaneous fistula closure: a case report
CONCLUSION: This case report details the successful closure of a gastrocutaneous fistula after administration of HFES 3 times a week over the course of 25 days. The mechanism of action of HFES and its role in the wound healing process are also discussed.PMID:38479429 (Source: Wounds)

Misdiagnosis of cutaneous epithelioid angiosarcoma as diabetic foot ulcer: a case study
CONCLUSION: Physicians should be aware of this rare presentation of cutaneous AS. The authors of the current report advise regular clinical reassessment of chronic ulcers and biopsies of nonhealing wounds, even when adequate wound treatment has been administered, with the goal of identifying ulcerated skin malignancies and preventing delay in providing appropriate treatment.PMID:38479430 (Source: Wounds)

An investigation of the antimicrobial efficacy of a nonwoven CMC PHMB dressing and the ability of the dressing to absorb wound slough
CONCLUSION: The CMC PHMB gelling fiber dressing is able to absorb and retain viscous solutions (simulated slough). The antimicrobial efficacy of the dressing under compression was demonstrated by total eradication of all microorganisms tested.PMID:38479431 (Source: Wounds)

Topical phenytoin improves wound healing with analgesic and antibacterial properties and minimal side effects: a systematic review
CONCLUSION: Phenytoin enhances wound healing and offers analgesic and antibacterial properties with minimal adverse effects. Further research is needed on optimal dosage of phenytoin, as well as frequency, delivery vehicles, and effects on other postoperative wounds.BACKGROUND: Although phenytoin's potential benefits in wound healing, pain relief, and infection control across various wound types have been previously reported, its use in wound care remains limited.OBJECTIVE: To conduct a comprehensive review to assess the efficacy of topical phenytoin compared with standard and alternative treatments for different wound typ...
