Infection of a prosthetic graft is still associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. Conventionally, this vascular complication is treated by excising the infected graft, although prosthetic graft preservation is possible in selected cases.
We report the successful treatment of prosthetic graft infection caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in three patients, by performing drainage surgery with postoperative irrigation using gentian violet.
The combination of drainage surgery and irrigation with gentian violet solution provides an alternative option to graft excision for prosthetic graft infection.
人造移植物感染仍然会导致相当大的发病率和死亡率。传统上,这种血管并发症通过切除受感染的移植物来治疗,尽管在某些情况下可以保留人造移植物。
我们报告了三例耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌(MRSA)引起的人造移植物感染的成功治疗,方法是在术后使用龙胆紫进行灌洗的引流手术。
引流手术联合龙胆紫溶液灌洗为治疗人造移植物感染提供了一种替代切除移植物的选择方案。
