    Area of Science:

    • Surgical Oncology
    • Wound Healing
    • Infectious Disease Management

    Context:

    • Epifascial phlegmon presents complex surgical challenges requiring effective debridement and wound management.
    • Conventional treatments may lead to significant fluid loss and prolonged recovery.
    • Optimizing surgical techniques is crucial for minimizing patient morbidity and mortality.

    Purpose:

    • To elaborate a complex method for the surgical treatment of epifascial phlegmon.
    • To detail flap tailoring and division techniques based on anatomical site and vascular supply.
    • To evaluate the efficacy of a hydrogen peroxide and iodine solution for wound sanitation.

    Summary:

    • A novel surgical approach involves precise flap tailoring and division, guided by anatomical and vascular considerations, enabling radical cleansing of the infected site.
    • The use of a hydrogen peroxide and iodine mixture for sanitation maximizes preservation of viable skin, contrasting with traditional 'stripe' incisions.
    • This technique minimizes lympho- and plasma losses, prevents wound exhaustion, allows visual monitoring of necrosis, and utilizes full-value cutaneo-subcutaneous flaps for pain reduction and cosmetic improvement.

    Impact:

    • Reduced hospitalization duration by half.
    • Decreased mortality rates by over threefold.
    • Improved cosmetic outcomes post-healing due to flap fixation preventing shortening.
