• TITLE: Successful Management of Wound Dehiscence after Total Knee Arthroplasty by Topically Using Recombinant Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor

  AUTHORS: Jing Zhang, Zhiguo Lin

  KEYWORDS: Wound Dehiscence, Total Knee Arthroplasty, Recombinant Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor

  ABSTRACT: Wound complications are estimated to be affected in about 9% of TKA patients, which may increase the risk of deep periprosthetic infection and results in re-operation, joint fusion, or amputation. Here we have reported a female patient who suffered wound rupture due to early post-operation mobilization and weight-bearing. The wound dehiscence was successfully managed by applying recombinant basic fibroblast growth factor-2 and anti-infective treatment without removing prosthetic joint.
