Effectiveness of Closed-Incision Negative Pressure Wound Therapy in Non-Autologous Breast Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Background

Prophylactic closed-incision negative pressure wound therapy (ciNPWT) may reduce risk of postoperative wound complications, but its use in breast surgery remains uncertain due to lack of breast-specific recommendations in guidelines. This meta-analysis addresses this gap by evaluating the efficacy of ciNPWT versus standard dressings in non-autologous breast surgery.
