Closure Rate of Chronic Wound With Sinus Tract Based on Morphological and Pathological Features of the Endoscopic Evaluated Sinus Tract
Summary: Original research examining how endoscopic morphology and pathology of sinus tracts relate to closure outcomes in chronic wounds. The cohort showed a high overall closure rate, with morphologically complex tracts less common but clinically meaningful.
Key Highlights:
- Cohort & design: Prospective endoscopic evaluation of sinus tracts in chronic wounds with standardized follow-up.
- Key finding: Morphologically complex tracts were relatively infrequent but impacted healing dynamics; overall closure rate reported at ~85%.
- Clinical utility: Endoscopic tract characterization can guide targeted debridement, irrigation, and closure strategies.
