The 75-year-old male patient presented with an unstageable pressure ulcer on his sacrum for 2 months due to immobility and incontinence. The attending resident treated the ulcer with local wound care and dressings but without surgical debridement. Proper management of pressure ulcers requires a multidisciplinary approach including prevention through risk factor modification, non-operative treatments like debridement and dressings, and potentially operative treatments such as flap reconstruction if non-operative options fail. Surgical debridement should have been considered for this patient's ulcer rather than only local wound care.
