| Summary: | The OBJECTIVE was to perform a comparative cytological analysis of the wound exudate in healing wounds during autodermoplasty on a granulating burn wound with and without vacuum therapy.METHODS AND MATERIALS. The article presents the results of the cytological study substantiated the use of vacuum therapy in combustiology. The comparative analysis was performed in 2 groups of patients. The first group consisted of patients with granulating burn wounds, who underwent surgical treatment with vacuum therapy. The second group consisted of patients who underwent surgical treatment without vacuum therapy. In both groups, the complex of surgical treatment included autodermoplasty on a granulating burn wound. All the patients were treated in the Burn Department of the «Scientific research institute – Ochapovsky regional clinic hospital № 1».RESULTS. The application of vacuum-associated dressings in the surgical treatment of patients in burn hospitals helps to reduce the time of graft retention in the plasty of granulating burn wound, decrease the number of dressings and the amount of dressing material, reduce the time of treatment of patients.CONCLUSION. The obtained cytological results allow us to justify the application of vacuum therapy in the surgical treatment of granulating burn wounds.
