  • Title: [Cutaneo-fascial flaps in restorative and reconstructive surgery of burns].
    Author: Kurbanov ShI, Moroz VIu, Grishkevich VM.
    Journal: Khirurgiia (Mosk); 1990 Jun; (6):73-6. PubMed ID: 2214580.
    Abstract:
    On the basis of experience with the treatment of more than 1,500 patients with post-burn defects, deformities, and trophic ulcers, the authors distinguished types of affection in which the traditional methods are ineffective. These 133 patients were subjected to plasty with ++cutaneo-fascial grafts; the zones of donor areas from which the grafts are taken are determined. Plasty with ++cutaneo-fascial grafts is indicated in defects of the face, deformity of the neck, total adduction contracture of the arm, defect of the breast, and affections of the hand, leg, and foot. Concrete grafts and the site from which they are taken for restoration of certain regions of the body are suggested. ++Cutaneo-fascial grafts make it possible to restore the shape, function, and the skin of the involved region.
