Synopsis

This book outlines different methods and materials used clinically to achieve safe, temporary closure of the open wound when sufficient autologous skin is unavailable. The most common biological dressing (allogeneic and xenogeneic skin), and synthetic and biosynthetic materials used for burn treatment and coverage are also discussed. This monograph also documents various experimental studies using in vitro engineered skin. By introducing a new tissue engineering method (chimeric cultures), the author provides a solution to overcome the problem of late keratinocyte growth.
