摘要:Microskin graft is a technique of skin defect closure using a minimum of STSG donors to cover the large defect. Some considerations were taken, which includes the general status of the patient, donor area morbidity, and patient refusal to act is one of the reasons for the use microskin graft. History STSG failure with previous defect closure and lack of donor area would to bene!t from microskin graft. Case of boy 12 years old with extensive defects in the forearm due to burns. Consideration of the lack of donor area made us deciding to use microskin graft as main option to close the defect. We did one-week post operative evaluation. Epithelialization occurs at day 7, while complete epithelialization occurred at 14th day. Three month during follow-up control, the scar are minimal. We conclude that microskin graft is one technic that can be used in skin defect closure with minimal donor.
摘要:Objective To introduce a new method of treating facial soft tissue defect by observing the clinical curative effects of traditional Chinese medicine moisture exposed burn ointment in treating facial soft tissue defect. Methods A total of 85 patients with facial soft tissue defects were treated with traditional Chinese medicine moisture exposed burn ointment, and the clinical therapeutic effects were analyzed by observing the wound healing time, scar formation and changes of facial appearance and functions. Results Of the 85 patients, the shortest wound healing time was 12 days and the longest was 72 days; the facial appearance and functions restored to be normal in 74 patients, with good skin elasticity and mild scar formation in the wound area; 11 patients were lost to the follow-up; two patients suffered from the longest wound healing time due to their skin defect of nasal tip and nasal columella and the cartilage defect of nasal wings, and V-shaped defects were left at the edge of the left nostrils after the wound healing, which may be attributed to the ineffectiveness of MEBT/MEBO on cartilage. Conclusion Traditional Chinese medicine moisture exposed burn ointment can realize more satisfying healing effects when applied in the treatment of facial soft tissue defects, including user-friendly operation, no special requirements for medical devices, obviously lower treatment cost, etc., and thus it is an easy-to-operate and effective way for such patients, especially for elderly patients, patients with poor body conditions and patients unbearable to undergo complicated operations.

摘要:Burn injury is one of the most devastating injuries that may affect a patient. Even in economically deprived areas, burn care is largely driven by relatively plentiful resources equating quality of care with generous monitoring and clinical attention with little concern to management cost. Burn care costs have been the subject of very few investigations and are among the least studied by health services researchers. Nevertheless, it can be stated that local care of burn wounds accounts for a large proportion of the cost per day for treating patients. As economic times are changing and as market penetration of managed care contracts and stiff competition in the health care industry gains momentum, ways to reduce expenditures without adversely affecting the quality of care have become of primary importance. We report a randomized prospective comparative study analyzing the benefit-cost value of moist exposed burn ointment (MEBO) application, an exposed method for burn wound care without the need for a secondary covering dressing, as compared to conventional closed methods.
