ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: The management of vascular graft infections continues to be a significant challenge in a clinical situation. The aim of this report is to illustrate the novel vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) technique and rectus femoris muscle flap transposition for vascular graft infections, and to evaluate the prospective of future testing of this surgical procedure.
CASE SUMMARY: We report the case of a 32-year-old male patient, who presented a severe infected groin wound with biological vascular graft Acinetobacter baumannii infection resulting in extensive graft exposure. Using the VSD and muscle flap trans-position, the groin wound and vascular graft infection were finally treated successfully.
CONCLUSION: Our case report highlights that VSD technique and rectus femoris muscle flap transposition could be considered in patients pre senting with a severe infected groin wound with biological vascular graft Acinetobacter baumannii infection resulting in extensive graft exposure, especially in consideration of treatable conditions.
