After surgery the patient was treated with
immunosuppressive therapy (prednisone and cyclosporine,
an inhibitor of T lymphocytes) to prevent a recurrence of the
underlying disease.
Advanced dressings were applied on all other areas for 50
days * to obtain not only an enzymatic debridement of the
eschars, but also to stimulate the healing of the loss of
substance.

dressings to prevent both bacterial infections and to induce tissue
regeneration.
