Abstract:
Vacuum-assisted closure (VAC) therapy is a relatively new technique in the field of wound management. It has been increasingly used in treating various types of open wounds with effective results and minimal adverse effects. Digital injuries can occasionally be problematic. We report a new application of vacuum-assisted closure therapy in treating digital pulp defects.
