Summary
Intranodal glue embolization (IGE) effectively treated persistent groin lymphorrhea and infection in a 90-year-old patient after arterial revascularization surgery. This minimally invasive technique led to complete wound healing without recurrence.
Area of Science:
- Vascular Surgery
- Interventional Radiology
- Wound Healing
Background:
- Persistent lymphorrhea and infection following surgical cutdown for arterial revascularization present a significant challenge.
- Standard treatments like negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) and lymphadenectomy were insufficient in this case.
