BACKGROUND: Chronic wounds and their problematic healing is a widely discussed topic in all branches of medicine. In recent years, vacuum therapy appears to be a very successful non-invasive method supporting the healing of these wounds. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the possibility of utilizing a vacuum system in the orofacial area where other conservative and surgical procedures have failed. CASES: The case reports demonstrate the use of vacuum therapy in non-healing postoperative wounds in cancer patients. CONCLUSION: Vacuum therapy has limited use in the orofacial area, but based on our experience, we can conclude that it has a very positive effect on the healing of chronic wounds. Thanks to this treatment, it was possible to reduce the frequency of dressings and significantly shorten the length of hospital stay. Despite these advantages, however, it is necessary to adhere to the conditions for the application of vacuum treatment.
