Abstract:
There are various techniques for reconstructing skin and soft-tissue defects, among them skin expansion. During the past three years, we have tested a skin-stretching device based on the lag-screw principle of Hirshowitz et al. (1993). We have compared both techniques. The complication rate of both groups was acceptably low.
