  • Title: [Role of skin substitutes in surgical repair of the sequelae of burn injuries].
    Author: Dantzer E.
    Journal: Ann Chir Plast Esthet; 2011 Oct; 56(5):369-81. PubMed ID: 21924807.
    Abstract:
    The therapeutic management of the sequelae of deep burns always relies in principle on dermal-epidermal grafts. The latter, the price of which to pay is heavy scarring, cannot always be performed because the surface of skin available may not be sufficient. Research pathways have turned towards the creation of skin substitutes to minimise the scarring and improve the cosmetic quality of the grafts. We review the technical characteristics of collagen matrixes (Intégra(®) - Matriderm(®)) and their method of use.
