[Clinical experience with collagenous wound dressing in severe traumatic soft tissue injuries].
We treated 34 patients during 1987-1990 with a collagen wound dressing. Eleven patients had traumatic soft tissue defects, 10 patients had 3 degrees-grade open fractures, 7 patients had infected soft tissue wounds and 6 patients had deep 2 degrees and 3 degrees-degree burns. Our clinical experience confirmed the excellent clinical experimental results of collagen wound dressings. In all cases after 4 until 6 days of treatment good granulation and vascularisation of the wound bed was obtained, so that a skin transplant could be performed, which in all cases healed primarily. Moreover, the wound dressing had a good antibacterial effect and integrated actively in the wound healing process.
