Extended Use of Full-Thickness Skin Grafts, Employing Variable Donor Sites
BACKGROUND Full-thickness skin graft (FTSG) is a very versatile tool regularly used in small sizes. With the established knowledge of the graft take through the margins as well as wound bed, we extended the use of the FTSG for reconstruction of large-sized defects with satisfactory results. METHODS We presented our experience in wound reconstruction using FTSG in 28 patients. We select...
متن کاملCD95 ligand expression on corneal epithelium and endothelium influences the fates of orthotopic and heterotopic corneal allografts in mice.
PURPOSE To determine the extent to which CD95 ligand (CD95L) expressed on corneal epithelium and endothelium influences survival of cornea grafts placed orthotopically and heterotopically in the anterior chamber (AC), an immune-privileged site. METHODS Corneas from eyes of C57BL/6 (B6) and B6.gld (CD95L deficient) mice were (1) rendered into small full-thickness fragments, with or without an ...
متن کاملDoes Orientation of Full-Thickness Groin Grafts Affect Hyperpigmentation in Burn Contracture and Syndactyly Hands?
BACKGROUND Some grafts harvested from the groin area do not become hyperpigmented and in an individual with multiple pieces of grafts, the hyperpigmentation of the pieces may vary. This study evaluates the orientation of the inset of groin grafts according to their donor sites (superior-inferior) and its role in graft hyperpigmentation. METHODS Patients with hand burn contracture or syndacty...
متن کاملEvaluation of a new system for obtaining donor lamellar grafts.
PURPOSE To evaluate the performance of a new system for obtaining corneal lamellar grafts of preset sizes. The system consists of the combination of an artificial anterior chamber (MALKS) and an automated microkeratotome (MASYK). METHODS A prospective study was performed. Lamellar tissue was obtained with the microkeratotome from 40 human corneoscleral buttons mounted in the artificial anteri...
متن کاملCurrent Trends in Corneal Transplantation
Corneal transplantation, as full-thickness transplantation, is an old surgical procedure which has been successfully performed for more than 100 years. However, in a last decade significant changes in surgical technique(s) have been implemented. The reason for such changes is the current trend to replace only the diseased part of the recipient cornea, not the whole cornea. Therefore, if the ant...
