Resection arthroplasty of a chronically infected total knee arthroplasty resulted in thin and contracted anterior skin. Expansion of skin using Silastic reservoirs (McGhan Medical, Santa Barbara, CA) facilitated wound closure and rehabilitation following staged total knee reimplantation. Prophylactic expansion of skin around the knee avoided salvage soft tissue procedures such as local and distant tissue flaps.
慢性感染的全膝关节置换术行切除关节成形术后导致前侧皮肤变薄和挛缩。使用硅橡胶扩张器(McGhan Medical,加利福尼亚州圣巴巴拉市)扩张皮肤有助于分期全膝关节翻修术后的伤口闭合和康复。膝关节周围皮肤的预防性扩张避免了诸如局部和远处组织皮瓣等挽救性软组织手术。
