Abstract:
Tissue expansion is a technique, which uses the biomechanical properties of skin and thereby aiding in wound closure. Commercially available devices for external expansion are not cost-effective. Hence, in this article, we would like to share our experience of innovative use of ziplock as external tissue expansion.
