          Abstract

          La hipergranulación es un problema ocasional, pero a la vez no infrecuente, con el que se enfrentan muchos clínicos responsables del tratamiento de heridas en su práctica diaria. Este fenómeno ocurre en un amplio abanico de heridas que incluyen las incisiones y heridas posquirúrgicas, los estomas (gastrostomías, traqueostomías, etc.) y las heridas crónicas. El objetivo del presente artículo es cuantificar y analizar la evidencia generada en torno al tema de la hipergranulación en las heridas crónicas, mediante la búsqueda bibliográfica en diversas bases de datos. Tras el análisis y revisión de los diferentes documentos recuperados se evidencia, tanto cuantitativa como cualitativamente hablando, una escasez importante de investigación en torno a la hipergranulación en heridas crónicas. Esto hace que el problema no se halle lo suficientemente explicado y que no existan evidencias sólidas que justifiquen el uso de un tratamiento sobre otro.

          Translated abstract

          Hypergranulation is an occasional but no infrequent problem, which many clinicians face in their daily practice. This phenomenon occurs in a variety of wounds that includes post-surgical incisions and wounds, stomas (gastrostomies, tracheotomies…) and chronic wounds. The objective of the present article is to quantify and to analyze the evidence generated around the topic of the hypergranulation in chronic wounds, through the bibliographical search in diverse data bases. After the analysis and revision of the different recovered documents it is demonstrated, both in terms of quantity and quality, an important shortage of investigation around the hypergranulation in chronic wounds. Therefore, the problem is not sufficiently explained and solid evidences do not exist to justify the use of a treatment over another one.
