“…Since its early use in closure of skin defects, 1,2 intraoperative acute tissue expansion (ATE) has remained controversial. Although its strongest proponents have demonstrated the effectiveness of ATE in soft tissue reconstruction, 3–9 the main criticism against ATE is that it offers no more of an advantage than undermining and advancement of the edges of the skin defect. Animal studies have been equivocal, some supportive of the role that ATE plays, whereas others disproving any advantages 10–14 …”

Giant congenital naevi (GCN) are disfiguring, potentially malignant pigmented naevi present at birth. The naevus cells in GCN are found throughout the dermis and sometimes penetrate the subcutaneous septa. It is claimed that superficial, more heavily pigmented and biologically different naevus cells reside in the upper dermis. Partial removal of these superficial naevus cells by dermabrasion, laser therapy, curettage or shave excision is less traumatic than excision surgery and produces an acceptable cosmetic result. However, none of these techniques or excision of GCN to superficial fat completely removes the risk of malignant transformation.
