A method of making a porous bioresorbable dressing is provided for use in applyingreduced pressure therapy to a wound site. The process includes manufacture ofa dressing by use of one or more bioresorbable polymers and a porogen system. Themalleability of the dressing allows the dressing to be placed into the wound sitesuch that it fills the shape and size of the wound. Embodiments include use of handmolding and formation of a rope dressing. The porogen system may be activatedexternal to the wound site or formed in situ within the wound site, thus creatinga porous dressing. A reduced pressure delivery tube is fluidly connected to thewound site to delivery a reduced pressure to the wound site.
