Banked allografts offer a prospect of immediate wound coverage Each year more than 10 000 people need admission to hospital in England and Wales for burns.' Immediate excision and grafting in patients with extensive burns is thought to improve survival-a hypothesis supported by retrospective studies of both children2 and adults,3 although not confirmed by a prospective study.4 Early grafting wo...
متن کاملSkin anatomy and antigen expression after burn wound closure with composite grafts of cultured skin cells and biopolymers.
Closure of large skin wounds (i.e., burns, congenital giant nevus, reconstruction of traumatic injury) with split-thickness skin grafts requires extensive harvesting of autologous skin. Composite grafts consisting of collagen-glycosaminoglycan (GAG) substrates populated with cultured dermal fibroblasts and epidermal keratinocytes were tested in a pilot study on full-thickness burn wounds of thr...
متن کاملPigmentation and microanatomy of skin regenerated from composite grafts of cultured cells and biopolymers applied to full-thickness burn wounds.
Rapid coverage and epithelial closure of extensive burns remains a major requirement for patient recovery. Although many skin substitutes have been described, permanent regeneration of both epithelial and connective tissues after a single surgical application of a skin substitute has not become routine. To replace both dermal and epidermal skin, cultured skin substitutes (CSS) were prepared fro...
متن کاملCryopreservation of Skin Tissues for Skin Grafts
Preservation of living tissue and organs are very important to ensure successful transplantation. The storage of living tissue, from the time of removal of the donor tissue until transplantation, is one of the most important factors for successful tissue transplantation. The purpose of living tissue storage is to maintain the viability of the mammalian cells, and various methods have been devel...
متن کاملUseful Tips for Skin Grafts
Skin grafting is a common operative procedure that is widely used in plastic, reconstructive, and aesthetic surgery. Beyond mere graft survival, however, the goals of surgery include good matching of texture and color and minimizing donor morbidity. These factors and optimal donor sites require careful consideration in each patient. We have found that the recommen‐ dations offered below can hel...
