Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is frequently employed in the treatment of complex wounds. A variety of wound chemotherapeutic agents such as insulin, which acts as a growth factor, may prove helpful in treatment as well. We present a case report in which insulin was used as a chemotherapeutic agent in continuous-instillation NPWT. To our knowledge, this is the first report in the literature describing this method of delivery.
负压伤口治疗（NPWT）常用于复杂伤口的治疗。多种伤口化疗药物，如起生长因子作用的胰岛素，可能在治疗中也有帮助。我们报告一例将胰岛素用作持续滴注NPWT化疗药物的病例。据我们所知，这是文献中描述这种给药方法的首例报告。
