| Abstrakt: | Gunshot wound leads to deep soft tissue damages known as penetrating trauma. Wound healing in patient with the gunshot is a dynamic and complex process that requires a suitable approach to promote the healing process. The reason for this is that such wounds are usually deep and extensive. Modern wound dressing in perforated wounds without a fracture or neurovascular injury may be considered for wound healing of outpatients. We report on an 18-year-old girl patient with gunshot wound who was referred to the wound clinic. The symptoms of wound dehiscence in the periumbilical site were observed following to lose suture after primary surgery. Therefore, a new special dressing approach was adopted. Healing of periumbilical wound was successfully achieved at the end.
