Abstract

The paper describes a procedure for using vacuum therapy in traumatology to treat type IIIb open fractures of long bones according to the Gustilo-Andersen classification. Vacuum drainage surpasses current bandaging materials in its properties, which allows this procedure to be used at all stages of the wound process even in the fixation of fragments in external fixation apparatuses.
