Introduction: Although skin grafts are widely used in reconstruction of large skin defect and complex wounds, many factors lead to suboptimal graft take. Negative-pressure wound therapy (NPWT) reportedly increases the graft take rates when added to skin grafting, but a summary analysis of the data of randomized controlled trials has yet to be performed. We conducted this systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials to compare the effectiveness and safety of NPWT and non-NPWT for patients with skin grafts.

Intralesional triamcinolone acetonide (TAC) and combination of TAC with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) are widely used to treat keloids and hypertrophic scars, but their efficacy and safety remain controversial.
Methods: We systematically searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and CNKI for relevant trials.
Article Synopsis
- In China, doctors are using high-frequency electric knives and abdominal binders during surgeries, but these might not be the best choices.
- A 40-year-old woman had problems after her cesarean delivery, and her surgery site reopened, causing serious issues.
- Using negative pressure wound therapy helped her wound heal well, and doctors now think they should avoid using the electric knife and binder in future surgeries.
Background: Keloids and hypertrophic scars often result after skin trauma. Currently, intralesional triamcinolone acetonide (TAC) is the criterion standard in nonsurgical management of keloids and hypertrophic scars. Intralesional verapamil may be an effective alternative modality, but it has been insufficiently studied.
