Objective To observe the effectiveness and safety of pseudomonas aeruginosa preparation in treating refractory seroma after breast cancer surgery.Methods A total of 76 patients with refractory seroma after breast cancer surgery who underwent surgery from October 2018 to August 2019 in our hospital were selected. The subjects were randomly divided into two groups. The patients in the control group (n=36) adopted negative pressure drainage connected with indwelling needle in the lower position of the seroma chamber; on the basis, patients in the experimental group (n=400) were injected with pseudomonas aeruginosa preparation into the seroma chamber. The drainage time, total drainage volume, recurrence rate, and incidence of complications of the two groups were compared.Results There were 4 cases in the experimental group and 3 cases in the control group were lost followed-up, so only 69 cases enrolled in data analysis. The drainage time, total drainage volume, and the recurrence rate of the experimental group were all shorter or less than those of the control group (P<0.05). But there was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between the experimental group and the control group (P>0.05), such as fever, inflamed skin, and infection of incision.Conclusion Pseudomonas aeruginosa preparation is an effective treatment for refractory seroma after breast cancer surgery, which can shorten the drainage time and promote wound healing.
