Redoable Tie-Over Dressing Using Multiple Loop Silk Threads
A 56-year-old female presented to the hospital with a skin lesion on the right buttock that had appeared one year earlier. On the biopsy, the patient was diagnosed with Bowen's disease and surgical excision was carried out. After the excision, the full thickness of the skin obtained from groin sites was grafted onto the defect sites because primary closure of the surgical area was difficult. Five days after the surgery, the tie-over dressing was opened and re-tie-over dressing was applied in order to maintain proper tension in the skin graft sites even though seroma and hematoma collection were not observed. Eleven days after the surgery, we confirmed that the graft was taken up successfully without any complications ().
