石灰化尿毒症性細動脈症（石灰化症）の創傷管理と手術：後向き観察コホート研究

Wound care in calciphylaxis remains poorly defined without evidence-based consensus on timing and technique of surgical intervention. We demonstrate that surgical debridement and subsequent wound closure are safe and effective in calciphylaxis and describe a systematic multidisciplinary approach to intervention. We retrospectively reviewed a cohort of patients with calciphylaxis at our institution. Those who underwent surgical debridement and wound closure were analysed with emphasis on wound healing, progression to amputation and mortality. Sixty-two patients with calciphylaxis underwent surgical debridement. Twenty patients had wound closure by skin grafting, five were excised with primary wound closure, and 37 were debrided and allowed to heal by secondary intention. There were excellent rates of healing in all groups, and no patients demonstrated wound progression or new lesions following operative intervention. Surgical debridement and wound closure are safe and effective in treating wounds related to calciphylaxis.
