The plantar skin is the best donor site for grafting third-degree burn wounds onto volar aspect of hands and digits. In children, however, it is difficult to harvest the instep for a split-thickness graft. Most of these cases are treated with full-thickness or split-thickness skin grafts and dyspigmentation of the grafted area becomes a reality. We present a case of full-thickness graft hyperpigmentation that was treated with instep plantar graft.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
