The objective of this study was to compare 2 different approaches to wound management after aggressive surgical debridement. <jats:italic>Methods<\/jats:italic>. Data from 14 patients with Fournier\u2019s gangrene were retrospectively collected (2005\u20132011). Once the patients were stabilized following surgery, they were treated with either daily antiseptic (povidone iodine) dressings (group I,         <mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\"><mml:mi>n<\/mml:mi><mml:mo>=<\/mml:mo><mml:mn fontstyle=\"italic\">6<\/mml:mn><\/mml:math>) or dressings with dakin\u2019s solution (sodium hypochloride) (group II,                       <mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\"><mml:mi>n<\/mml:mi><mml:mo>=<\/mml:mo><mml:mn fontstyle=\"italic\">8<\/mml:mn><\/mml:math>). <jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>. The mean age of the patients was 68.2 \u00b1 7.8 (55\u201375) years in group I and 66.9 \u00b1 10.2 (51\u201379) years in group II. Length of hospital stay was 13 \u00b1 3.5 (7\u201316) days in group I and 8.9 \u00b1 3.0 (4\u201312) days in group II (<mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\"><mml:mi>P<\/mml:mi><mml:mo>&lt;<\/mml:mo><mml:mn fontstyle=\"italic\">0.05<\/mml:mn><\/mml:math>). The number and rate of mortality was 1\/6 (16.7%) in group I, and 1\/8 (12.5%) in group II. <jats:italic>Conclusions<\/jats:italic>. The hospitalization time can be reduced with the use of dakin\u2019s solution for the dressings in the treatment of FG. Also, dressings with dakin\u2019s solution seems to have favorable effects on morbidity and mortality. Consequently dakin\u2019s solution may alter the treatment of this disastrous disease by reducing cost, morbidity and mortality.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5402\/2012\/762340","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,3,5]],"date-time":"2012-03-05T20:53:22Z","timestamp":1330980802000},"page":"1-4","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Fournier's Gangrene: Conventional Dressings versus Dressings with Dakin's Solution"],"prefix":"10.5402","volume":"2012","author":[{"given":"B\u00fclent","family":"Altunoluk","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology, Medical Faculty, Kahramanmara\u015f S\u00fct\u00e7\u00fc \u0130mam University, Y\u00f6r\u00fckselim Mah.
