The use of silicone gel to enhance skin wound healing by secondary intention following tumor excision on the scalp and extremities: A descriptive study

Secondary intention (SI) healing is advantageous due to shorter surgical time and lower risk of damage to neighboring structures. It is therefore more tolerable in elderly patients with large wounds and is also indicated for lesions at high risk of recurrence as this facilitates closer surveillance. The main disadvantage however is the need for prolonged wound care. Although there is constant effort in adapting materials designed for chronic wounds as an adjunct to SI healing, a recent Cochrane review expounded on the lack of evidence to support any single method.
