Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of large medium thickness skin graft on the back and scalp replantation in the back donor area after complete resection of giant congenital melanoma nevus (GCMN) in children′s upper limbs.Methods:From April 2017 to may 2020, 16 pediatric patients with GCMN of upper limbs were treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Military Medical University, including 9 males and 7 females, aged from 2 years to 7 months to 12 years. Giant melanoma nevus area 14 cm×11 cm-23 cm×20 cm, the wound after removing the skin of giant melanocytic nevus of the limb was covered with vaseline oil gauze for 2-3 days, and then a large medium thickness skin graft was cut on the back with a drum skin extractor for transplantation. The wound in the back skin donor area was replanted with a blade thick scalp.Results:The effect of excision of giant nevus of upper limb and skin grafting on the wound of back medium thickness donor area in 16 pediatric patients was satisfactory, and there were no serious complications such as skin necrosis and poor survival. Plasma swelling was formed under the skin graft of one child′s limb, which healed after opening and drainage and three dressing changes. Anti-scar and rehabilitation treatment was performed on the limb and donor site.The patients were followed up for 6-18 months. There was no obvious scar hyperplasia and contracture in the skin graft area and donor area. The skin color and elasticity of the back and limb skin graft area were close to the normal skin around the wound, and the activities of elbow joint, wrist joint and interphalangeal joint were not limited. The parents of the pediatric were satisfied with the function and appearance of the limb skin graft area and back skin donor area of giant nevus.Conclusions:The function and appearance of large medium thickness skin graft on the back after excision of congenital giant nevus of upper limb in pediatric are better; There is no obvious scar formation after scalp replantation in the back donor area, and the repair effect is better.
