SAVE Studie- SArcoma Surgery With Vacuum Enhanced Wound Treatment Randomised Study to Evaluate the Wound Management in Sarcoma Surgery

The aim of this study is to evaluate local complications following sarcoma resection in the groin and thigh regions with regard to the planned wound closure method. To this end, temporary soft tissue coverage using a vacuum-assisted closure (VAC) system and delayed secondary closure with wound sutures and drainage placement will be compared to primary closure with drainage in terms of wound infections, revisions, and seroma formation.
