Abstract

Deep sternal wound infection (DSWI) is a life-threatening complication after cardiac operations, especially after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in diabetic patients. Bilateral pectoralis major muscle flaps have been performed to treat DSWI. Two diabetic patients suffering from DSWI after CABG were treated by bilateral pectoralis major muscle flaps in our hospital. Both patients were discharged with full recovery. Satisfactory results can be obtained with bilateral pectoralis major muscle flaps following tissue debridement and drainage. This procedure should be performed when DSWI occurs in diabetic patients after CABG.

双侧胸大肌瓣治疗糖尿病患者冠状动脉旁路移植术后胸骨深部感染：两例报告。

胸骨深部伤口感染（DSWI）是心脏手术后的一种危及生命的并发症，尤其是糖尿病患者冠状动脉搭桥术后。双侧胸大肌皮瓣已用于治疗DSWI。我院采用双侧胸大肌皮瓣治疗2例糖尿病患者冠状动脉旁路移植术后DSWI。两名患者均已完全康复出院。双侧胸大肌皮瓣在组织清创和引流后可获得满意的效果。当糖尿病患者冠状动脉旁路移植术后出现DSWI时，应进行此手术。
