Analysis on effect of vacuum sealing drainage combined with routine debridement in treatment of frontal sinusitis after craniotomy / 重庆医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of using uninterrupted vacuum sealing drainage combined with routine debridement and pedicled periosteal flap sealing frontal sinusitis in treating frontal sinusitis after craniotomy.Methods The clinical data in 31 cases of frontal sinusitis after craniotomy in our hospital from January 2006 to December 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.Seventeen cases adopted simple debridement and drainage treatment and 14 cases were treated with continuous vacuum sealing drainage combined with routine debridement treatment.Postoperative follow up lasted over 1 year.Results In simple debridement and drainage,12 cases were cured,the other 5 cases recurred after operation,and the cure rate was 70.6 ％.But in the continuous vacuum sealing drainage combined with routine debridement treatment,14 cases were cured,no case recurred after operation,and the cure rate was 100％.Therefore,the cure rate of continuous vacuum sealing drainage treatment combined with routine debridement was higher than that of simple debridement and drainage treatment(P＜0.05).Conclusion Adopting vacuum sealing drainage combined with routine debridement and pedicled periosteal flap sealing frontal sinusitis can promote the infection focus clearance and wound healing,and increases the cure rate.
