Minced Skin Grafting for Promoting Wound Healing and Improving Donor-Site Appearance after Split-Thickness Skin Grafting: A Prospective Half-Side Comparative Trial

摘要

Background: Minced skin grafting is a procedure that involves mincing of the harvested skin and grafting it back onto the wounds. The authors aimed to investigate whether minced skin grafting reduces the healing time and improves the sequential postoperative appearance of donor sites. Methods: A single-center, two-treatment, half-side comparative study was performed. The split-thickness skin remaining after grafting was minced until pasty. The small pasty graft mass was uniformly spread on half of the entire donor site. Minced skin grafting was not performed on the other side. The data from 30 patients were used for analysis.
