This literature review critically examines the historical, current, and prospective dimensions of sternal wound reconstruction in the specific context of deep sternal wound infection (DSWI), aiming to enhance patient outcomes and optimise surgical techniques. Preventive measures, including prophylactic antibiotic administration and surgical site preparation, are crucial in reducing the incidence of DSWI. Effective management necessitates a multidisciplinary approach encompassing surgical debridement, drainage, and sternum repair utilising diverse procedures in conjunction with antibiotic therapy.

Purpose: Surgical site infections (SSIs) following spine surgery are associated with morbidity and resource utilization. Applying prophylactic closed-incisional negative pressure wound therapy (ciNPWT) during posterior instrumented fusion has mixed results in reducing rates of wound complications and SSI. We evaluated the clinical efficacy and potential cost-savings associated with ciNPWT in high-risk patients receiving posterior instrumented spinal fusion.

Article Synopsis
- Surgical resection is a key part of treating stomach and esophagus cancers, but it can lead to serious issues like leakage when the body is put back together.
- *Detecting these leaks quickly using methods like CT scans and endoscopy is really important for successful treatment.
- *New endoscopic methods, especially the endoscopic vacuum therapy, have greatly improved how doctors handle these leaks, making recovery outcomes much better.

Background And Aims: Esophageal stricture (ES) is a severe adverse event following wide-field endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) of superficial esophageal carcinoma. This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of combining endoscopic vacuum therapy (EVT) and budesonide orodispersible tablet (BOT) in preventing post-ESD strictures.
Methods: This prospective case series included patients with superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma who had wide-field ESD (≥75% circumference, resection length ≥50 mm).
