1.	Burns 04/27/2003 - "BACKGROUND: Intermingled skin grafting using autologous skin islets inlaid in allogeneic skin sheets was found to delay graft rejection, contributing to a significant reduction in mortality for patients with severe burns" 12/01/1999 - "Early tangential excision and skin grafting of moderate burns is superior to honey dressing: a prospective randomised trial." 12/01/2002 - "Laser debridement followed by skin grafting was as efficacious in improving the wound healing of deep SM burns as the "Gold Standard." Full-thickness laser debridement of these small total body surface area (TBSA) burns was time efficient and provided adequate beds for split-thickness skin grafting" 11/01/2007 - "The UEF device provides a safe and effective means for elevation of extremites in patients with circumferential extremity burns undergoing skin grafting" 02/01/2002 - "RESULTS: Bioengineering methods indicated that laser debridement followed by autologous split-thickness skin grafting was as efficacious in improving the wound healing of deep SM burns in weanling swine as the 'Gold Standard.' Regardless of the method of debridement, barrier function, skin colour and mechanical properties returned to near-normal levels within 15 days of treatment in the grafted sites" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
2.	Wounds and Injuries (Trauma) 09/01/2002 - "OBJECTIVE: To determine if delayed or immediate full-thickness skin grafting results in better graft survival with improved function and appearance, and to identify the recipient bed characteristics, including the size of the wound, the proportion of the wound base having perichondrium, denuded cartilage, and granulation tissue, and graft survival for each technique" 09/01/2006 - "The VAC system was found to be safe and effective in facilitating the closure of large and complex wounds without skin grafting" 10/01/2004 - "The Vacuum-assisted Closure device allows earlier wound closure, early skin grafting (with improved graft adherence), earlier hospital discharge, and earlier return to baseline functional status" 02/01/1995 - "The skin-stretching device eliminated the need for local or distant flap reconstruction in five skin defects and skin grafting in five wounds" 08/01/1984 - "An improved method for skin grafting wounds that are compromised by bacterial contamination or other risk factors for graft loss is described" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
3.	Ulcer 06/01/1987 - "Effective treatment of ulcer by autologous skin transplantation]" 08/01/1995 - "We conclude that meshed split-thickness skin grafting is a safe and effective therapy for recalcitrant lower extremity ulcers." 01/01/1997 - "Our experience confirms the efficacy of early treatment of the ulcer by wide excision associated with antibiotic treatment and followed by skin grafting using fine grafts." 01/01/1990 - "Also an improved wound healing and ulcer demarcation following amputation or skin transplantation was observed" 10/01/1981 - "Otherwise intractable conditions may be cured by such combined activity and a properly organised "skin-grafting service" pays handsome dividends by shortening the healing time for ulcers within the hospital."

4.	Contracture 03/01/1983 - "Advantages of delayed skin grafting are as follows: improved recipient bed vascularity providing high survival of a thicker graft; provision of additional tissue bulk; reduced length of time for healing; less contracture than with granulation healing; and elimination of additional scarring adjacent to the defect" 01/01/2007 - "Skin grafting is widely used for the treatment of postburn contractures" 12/01/2006 - "After surgical release of the contracture and capsulotomy, external fixator pins were inserted into the first and second metacarpals to maintain thumb abduction and into the radius and second metacarpal to maintain wrist extension, followed by skin grafting" 12/01/2006 - "Ninety-one operations were performed in 74 patients, the method of reconstruction included skin grafting in 43 contractures, local flaps in 16, pediculated flaps in 11, and the new combined approach in 21 cases" 11/01/2006 - "We observed that the scapular flap repairs have many benefits to skin grafting including no recurrence of contracture and stable coverage of the shoulder joint" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
5.	Cicatrix 09/01/2005 - "CONCLUSIONS: The carbon dioxide laser resurfacing and thin skin grafting method is effective in camouflaging self-inflicted razor blade incision scars." 09/01/2005 - "In the presented clinical study, we aimed to investigate the effectiveness of carbon dioxide laser resurfacing and thin skin grafting in camouflaging self-inflicted razor blade incision scars" 03/01/2007 - "After transplantation, skin lesions slowly healed without any specific treatment, leaving residual areas of fibrotic scars" 03/01/2007 - "In this clinical trial we introduce a new technique of bipedicle flap from scar tissue for coverage of the antecubital fossa with skin grafting of the proximal and distal parts of this bipedicle flap" 12/01/2006 - "split-thickness skin grafting, contraction and scar formation are unavoidable" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
