Dehiscence of surgical incision site in a 75‐year‐old female. This wound arose from a previously treated open reduction internal fixation in the arm and subsequent removal of hardware because of infection. The dehisced wound underwent several debridement episodes prior to treatment with NPWT at −80 mmHg for a duration of 15 days, resulting in a 89% reduction in wound area and corresponding decrease in volume.
