Abstract EN

The aim of the study was to use negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) in patients with chronic venous leg ulceration.

The authors present their experience in treatment of 15 patients whose average ulceration surface area was 62.6 cm2.

In 10 patients, the ulcers healed within 6 weeks and in the remaining patients within 20 weeks.

Based on the results obtained, the authors imply that NPWT is an effective method in the treatment of chronic venous leg.
