“…It is reported that the donor site healing occurs from the epithelial appendages that are embedded in the dermis and subcutaneous tissue. Seyhan (2011) stated that healing of the donor site occurs by epithelial migration from the epithelial remnants in the dermis such as hair follicles, sebaceous gland, and sweat glands. He also opined that the more superficial a split thickness skin graft is cut, the faster the donor site will heal.…”

The objective of this study was to reconstruct the skin defects with partial thickness mesh skin grafts and to compare the efficacy of platelet rich plasma along with skin grafting. The present study was performed on ten dogs with twelve wounds which were unamenable to primary closure. All the wounds were reconstructed with partial thickness mesh skin grafting technique in which six wounds were assigned to group-I and remaining were similarly reconstructed followed by injection of platelet rich plasma were assigned to group-II. It was concluded from the present study that, partial thickness mesh skin grafting procedure showed good results for correction of skin defects. The group II wounds showed early primary healing with no difference in graft viability.

“…Recently, a negative pressure dressing (for example, vacuum-assisted closure therapy) has been introduced to facilitate skin graft adherence [ 5 , 18 – 20 ]. However, it is hard to apply a negative pressure dressing in the oral cavity because it has limited space and an irregular recipient bed.…”

BackgroundSkin engraftment of intraoral defects is known to be inconsistent due to mobility of the oral structure, uneven wounds, and accumulation of saliva under the skin graft. To improve the success rate of oral skin graft, we proposed a novel and simple dressing technique for intraoral skin graft to control saliva accumulation, in comparison with the conventional bolster dressing.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed 31 patients reconstructed with skin graft in their intraoral defect. The patients were divided into two groups; conventional bolster group (n = 21) and modified bolster group (n = 10). In the modified bolster group, a polyvinyl alcohol sponge was designed to fit the skin graft and a suction drain was inserted with tagging suture to apply continuous suction. We analyzed the success rate, the size of the skin grafts and clinical variables of each method.ResultsThe overall success rate of oral skin graft was not different between the two groups (90.0 and 90.5%). However, partial necrosis in the engrafted skin was observed frequently in the control group (57.1% versus 20.0%). The relative engrafted area was significantly higher in the modified bolster group (55.0 ± 11.6% versus 23.0 ± 18.7%, p = 0.015). The duration of bolster dressing and the time to start an oral diet were shorter in the modified bolster group.ConclusionsOur modified method could be easily applied for removing saliva accumulation under a skin graft and for enhancing skin engraftment of an oral cavity wound.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1186/s40463-018-0314-7) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

“…Skin grafts come into play when the tissue loss or injury is chronic. Based on the graft thickness they could either be split thickness or full thickness skin grafts [75]. Typically, split thickness grafts use the epidermis and the papillary dermis of an adult healthy skin for repair [75].…”

Dermal wound healing describes the progressive repair and recalcitrant mechanism of damaged skin and eventually reformatting and reshaping the skin. Many probiotics, nutraceuticals, metal nanoparticles have been associated with improved healing process of intra and inter tissue wounds. Despite the vast nature on material based wound healing mediators, the exact mechanism on material-cellular interaction is still point of repent issue particularly in diabetics and pathological condition. The use of bioengineered alternative agents will likely only continue to dominate the outpatient and perioperative management of chronic, recalcitrant wounds as new additional products continue to cut costs and improve wound healing process. This review article provides an update of the various remedies with confirmed wound healing activities by a diverse group of agents from previous experiments conducted by various researchers
