- W1589442885 abstract "Median sternotomy is a commonly performed incision with distinct advantages for exposure of mediastinal and pulmonary hilar structures [1]. However, a well-defined incidence of wound complications is associated with sternotomy, which are costly and potentially lethal in cases of deep sternal wound infection (DSWI) or mediastinitis [2-13]. Not only is DSWI associated with significant perioperative mortality, but historically even successfully treated DSWI is associated with reduced midand long-term survival compared with matched cardiac surgical patients without this dreaded postoperative complication [7-12]. In the past 10 years, we have accumulated extensive experience with managing DSWI as a referral center for these difficult problems. We and others have formalized a protocol for managing mediastinal infection utilizing negative pressure wound therapy which allows sternal salvage and improved outcomes in the majority of cases of DSWI [14-16]. This report describes our protocol for managing mediastinitis and presents our results for the past 18 years." @default.
