Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical effect of acellular allogenic dermis combined with split-thickness autogenous skin graft for coverage of wound in extremity joint. Methods After contraction scar, giant pigmented nevus and capillary hemangioma being removed, acellular allogenic dermis with split-thickness autogenous skin graft was used to repair 25 cases of wounds of elbow, ankle, knee and wrist joints. The area of wounds was from 7cm?11cm to 12cm?19cm. Out of 25 wounds, there were 4 in wrist, 8 in elbow, 7 in ankle and 6 in knee joints. The survival rate of graft skin and improvement degree of joint function were observed. Results All grafts survived and had the smooth surface without obvious pigmentation and wound contraction. The function of joint was significantly improved after operation. Conclusion Tissue-engineered dermis with autogenous epithelium is an ideal graft for coverage of various wounds in extremity joint.
