Abstract
A 61-year-old patient was affected by flaccid paraplegia for 20 years because of post-traumatic medullar injury caused by an accidental fall, with stage IV sacral pressure ulcer for 3 years. The patient later developed stage IV sacral pressure ulcer. After 6 months, a new granulation tissue formation appeared in the wound and a reduction of its diameter was observed (length 20 cm, width 15 cm, depth 5 cm). We therefore treated the wound with PRP (platelet rich plasma) intra-lesion and peri-lesional injections. The wounds were covered with three-dimensional polymerised hyaluronic acid medicated biologic dressing. After the surgery, a moderate reduction in diameter and the depth was observed. Super-oxidised solution (SOS-Dermacyn) was applied to control infection locally together with negative pressure to control the exudate and the local bacteremia, to avoid infectious complications without application of systematic antibiotic therapy.
