Abstract
Modified vacuum-assisted wound closure with a surgical glove has been proven effective [1]. Fournier's gangrene is a condition that has the possibility of sepsis and delayed healing. Vacuum-assisted wound closure has been done with V.A.C Vacuum-assisted closure (KCI, San Antonio, TX, USA) for scrotal wounds [2,3,4]. We would like to suggest the use of a vacuum with a surgical glove for healing a scrotal wound following Fournier's gangrene. We have found that this method promotes faster healing in a low-cost setting.
