[Autodermoplasty in the treatment of wound emaciation]

Different types of dermoplasty aimed at the closure of reactive wounds were applied in the treatment of 26 cases with protracted non-healing wounds (up to 30 years) following burns, frostbites, open fractures, outcomes of acute suppurative diseases with sepsis phenomena. The treatment failed only in one patient. The transplantation of free stamp-like skin grafts proved to be the most effective one. Biostimulating effect of the single grafts which fuse has been noted.
