A 23-year-old male with pressure injury went through local flap transfer but had poor wound healing. (A) The flap was lifted and the wound was completely exposed. (B) The wound edge closed to anus was stitched temporarily to reduce the contamination of feces. Negative pressure wound therapy was also used for wound bed preparation. (C) The wound bed had less necrotic tissue and more granulation tissue. (D) The flap was almost healed and the patient was soon discharged.
