【Abstract】Objective To analyze the application effect of the regenerative medical technology for burns, wounds and ulcers (MEBT/MEBO) combined with autologous micro-skin implantation in repairing skin flap necrosis following breast cancer surgery. Methods Ninety-eight patients with skin flap necrosis after breast cancer surgery, admitted to Anyang Cancer Hospital from January 2017 to January 2020, were selected as research subjects and divided, according to different treatments they received, into a study group and a control group, 49 cases each group. Patients in the study group were treated with MEBT/MEBO combined with autologous micro-skin implantation, whereas patients in the control group were treated with recombinant human basic fibroblast growth factor (rh-bFGF) combined with micro-skin implantation. Changes in levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) before and after treatment, as well as clinical efficacy and wound healing time were compared between the two groups. Results After treatment, the levels of VEGF and EGF in the wound tissues of the patients in the two groups all presented a trend of gradual increase, and their levels at each time point in the study group were significantly higher than that in the control group (Day 3 of treatment: t = 2.716, 2.187, P = 0.008, 0.031; day 7 of treatment: t = 2.138, 2.624, P = 0.035, 0.010). At week 5 of treatment, 28 cases were cured, 14 cases presented markedly effective and 7 cases effective in the study group, which were significantly better than that in the control group (15 cases cured and 18 cases markedly effective, 12 cases effective, and 4 cases ineffective) (Z= -3.068, P = 0.002). The wound healing time in the study group was (31.34±14.67) days, which was significantly shorter than that in the control group - (38.89±15.44) days (t=2.481, P=0.015). Conclusion Compared with the treatment protocol of rh-bFGF combined with autologous micro-skin implantation, the protocol of MEBT/MEBO combined with autologous micro-skin implantation is better in increasing the expression levels of VEGF and EGF in wound tissues of patients with skin flap necrosis after breast cancer surgery, promoting wound healing and shortening the wound healing time. |
