Beside these known alternatives, some other methods are advanced for wound care. However; sternal instability, ventricular rupture and pneumonia may be mortal in many patient as the course of the disease. In this article, a negative pressure wound therapy and reconstruction with pectoralis major muscle flap was introduced for postoperative mediastinitis occurred in a diabetic, coronary bypass patient. A wound therapy, that controls infection and supplies wound care as an effective treatment alternative for highly mortal mediastinis cases.en_US
