This is a case report about the treatment of a patient with post-traumatic paraplegia and pressure ulcer using negative pressure wound therapy. After treating the septic state of the patient, the necessary necrectomy was performed, which was followed by performing a sigmoideostomy and orchiectomy. Negative pressure wound therapy was then used to clean the defect. Despite the application of low molecular weight heparin, the condition was complicated by pulmonary embolism and subsequent heart failure, resulting in the death of the patient.
