简要总结
A fibula free flap can be used for the reconstruction of a mandible or a maxillar when the lack of bonne exceeds 3cm. This flap is made of the fibula bone, some muscle around, the fibular vascular pedicle and a skin paddle to reconstruct the gum. Once this flap has been taken and transposed on the face, the leg is closed with a split thickness skin graft to replace the skin paddle. But the healing on this site is often a problem: this is partly due to the high rate of early graft's loss due to local devascularization (3 to 55% of loss). The skin grafting is generally improved by the application of a dressing sewn and left in place during 5 to 7 days postoperative (standard method). This study will evaluate the efficiency of a portative miniature negative pressure dressing system named PICO® on the split-thickness skin graft of fibula free flap donor sites, compared to the standard method. A prospective randomized evaluation will be done, comparing the PICO® to a conventional dressing. The main aim of the study is the evaluation of the impact of this portative system on the healing of the skin grafted donor site, in terms of rate of skin take, time of healing, complications and medical costs. The patients will be seen preoperatively to decide on their inclusion in the protocol. They will be reviewed at day 10 to evaluate the engraftment and possible local complications on the donor site. They will then be reviewed at day 20 and day 30 and until complete healing. The follow up will be of 12 months maximum. A medical cost evaluation will be done comparing the costs generated by the care on the donor site in the 2 groups.

- •Contraindication to the setting up of a negative pressure therapy:
- •allergy to one of the PICO® components
- •infection in the donor area
- •cutaneous lesions of the lower limb preventing the placement of an occlusive dressing or making it impossible to seal the device

结局指标
主要结局
The percentage of failure of skin grafting (surface on which the skin graft did not take)
时间窗: on Day 10 postoperative (+/- 2 days)
次要结局
- Tendon exposure rate evaluated at day 10 (+/- 2 days) and day 20 (+/- 2 days) by the surgeon during hospitalization or in consultation if the patient is discharged.(Day 10 (+/- 2 days) and day 20 (+/- 2 days))
- Rate of patients for whom during of hospitalization was lengthened exclusively due to a problem with the skin graft. (Duration of hospitalization)(At 12 months)
- Evaluation of patient discomfort related to the PICO® device or to the standard dressing (noise, bulk, dressing) during the first 7 postoperative days. This discomfort is measured by an EVA of 0 to 100 measuring the discomfort experienced.(day 10)
- Rate of other surgery due to a problem on the skin grafted area.(Through complete healing, a maximum of 1 year)
- Treatment tolerance evaluation, measured wtih rate of adverse reaction(Day 20)
- Cost-effectiveness ratio. The medical and non-medical costs will be collect on the case report form(At 12 months)
- Rate of infection of the grafted site at day 10 (+/- 2 days) and day 20 (+/- 2 days), evaluated by the surgeon during hospitalization or in consultation if the patient is discharged(Day 10 (+/- 2 days) and day 20 (+/- 2 days))
- Delay between the day of the operation and the complete healing of the donor site of the fibula flap (in days)(Through complete healing, a maximum of 1 year)
- Evolution of the quality of life at 1 month postoperative (+/- 4 days) compared to preoperative (assessed by the Short Form-12 Health Survey Version 2 (SF-12v2))(At 1 month after surgery)
