Full-thickness skin grafts (FTSGs) are commonly used in reconstruction of small defects in the head and neck region. Numerous inset techniques have been used to ensure graft take and avoid hematoma formation.

A full-thickness skin graft (FTSG) is useful for covering small skin and soft tissue defects. In this paper, we suggest FTSG in consideration of the relaxed skin tension line (RSTL) concept for scar quality improvement since FTSG has disadvantages, ...

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.

2020年7月17日 · Skin grafting is a straightforward procedure to reconstruct soft tissue defects. It was the goal of this article to shed light on the basic concepts of STSG and FTSG. These techniques prove to be useful in oral and maxillofacial surgery for routine soft tissue defects that do not require the bulk or complexities of soft tissue free flaps.

The forehead interpolation flap reconstruction was performed right after the excision to cover the extensive defects on the cheek, followed by a full-thickness skin graft (FTSG) for the forehead. The patient recovered well without complication within eight weeks post-procedure.

2021年9月1日 · The total FTSG was used in 11 cases for full face coverage. The first dressing was changed three days after surgery. Sutures were removed on day 7. The healing time was equal to 10−17 days (Table 2). Despite the slow engraftment, we noticed that after 2 weeks, the graft provided improved texture, plasticity, elasticity, aesthetics and colour ...

2025年2月4日 · Researchers will compare the single-stage autologous layered composite grafting method to traditional methods to see if it improves healing outcomes, minimizes scarring, and reduces infection risk. Participants will: Receive fat grafting at time of scar revision.

1 Maria Chasapi, MD, MRCS Andrej Salibi, MD, MRCS, MSc Plastic Surgery Department Royal Preston Hospital Preston, Lancashire, United Kingdom Sir: F skin grafts (FTSGs) are commonly used in reconstruction of small defects in the head and neck region. Numerous inset techniques have been used to ensure graft take and avoid hematoma formation. These include tie-over dressings alone, tie-over ...

2020年12月20日 · Full-thickness skin grafts (FTSGs) have been widely used after facial skin cancer resection, for correcting defects that are too wide to be reconstructed using a local flap or if structural deformation is expected.
