Clinical application of vaccum sealing drainage in plasma cell mastitis / 中华内分泌外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the clinical value of vaccum sealing drainage in plasma cell mastitis.Methods 59 patients with plasma cell mastitis admitted in our hospital were treated with vaccum sealing drainage (the experimental group) from Jan.2011 to Apr.2014.59 plasma cell mastitis patients were treated with traditional vaseline gauze drainage (the control group).Clinical data like hospitalization length,healing time,healing grade,scar size,dressing change frequency,one year recurrence rate and breast deformity were retrospectively analyzed.Results Patients treated with vaccum sealing drainage had shorter hospitalization length and healing time,lower one year recurrence rate and less breast deformity compared to patients treated with traditional Vaseline gauze drainage (P＜0.01),while there was no significant difference in terms of healing grade (P＞0.05).Conclusions Vaccum sealing drainage can significantly shorten the hospitalization time and incision healing time,reduce dressing change frequency and one year recurrence rate in patients with plasma cell mastitis.Because of the smaller scar caused by vaccum sealing drainage,the breast deformity is also less.It is of clinical value for plasma cell mastitis.
