摘要
Vacuum-assisted closure(VAC (R)) is a simple wound healing tool in plastic surgery. We report a large thoracic defect in a child, in which the VAC (R) was used to cover an exposed polytetrafluoroethylene prosthesis. The VAC (R) saved the prosthesis and induced complete granulation of the wound, which healed completely in five weeks.
