Abstract:
Background. Extensive degloving skin injuries in children are particularly challenging for the possible complications of restricting growth and function. Biodegradable temporizing matrix (BTM, PolyNovo) is traditionally used for acute burn care reconstruction and in this case was successfully used to manage a child with lower limb open fractures associated with severe degloving injuries. This novel use offers excellent short and intermediate outcomes.
