Soft tissue degloving wounds overlying fractures present a technical surgical challenge and have a high rate of recurrence. Despite several current treatment methods, there remains a need for improved therapies to address this complex issue. The purpose of this study was to introduce a novel technique for managing soft tissue degloving wounds in the setting of fractures requiring operative fixation. Eleven consecutive patients with soft tissue degloving wounds overlying operatively managed fractures were treated with our novel technique for "dead space" elimination in the peri-operative period. The technique entails placing Jackson Pratt drain(s) within the degloving wound during operative debridement and placing them to low continuous wall suction postoperatively. This patient series shows that the application of 40 to 60 mm Hg of negative pressure allows for thorough drainage of the hemolymphatic fluid collection and elimination of dead space, allowing the delaminated tissue layers to heal together and preventing recurrence.
