This is the first study reporting the impact of ciNPWT after bone tumor resection and reconstruction, and its results support a potential role for this technique in diminishing postoperative wound complications and SSIs. A multicentric randomized controlled trial may help clarify the role and impact of ciNPWT after bone tumor resection and reconstruction.
