“…In lyophilized form, it has been used to cover extensive intraoral excisions after resection of precancerous lesions, improving the re-epithelialization of lesions and reducing pain in patients ( Hazarika et al, 2022 ). The dry AM graft in post-tonsillectomy as a biological dressing reduced postoperative pain, facilitated rapid return to normal diet and promoted the wound healing process ( Faramarzi et al, 2021 ). The use of decellularized and lyophilized amnion/chorion membrane in patients with laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma, who develop pharyngocutaneous fistula after preoperative chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and total or extended laryngectomy, demonstrated a median complete wound healing time of 18 days ( Kakabadze et al, 2016 ).…”

The amniotic membrane (AM) is the inner part of the placenta. It has been used therapeutically for the last century. The biological proprieties of AM include immunomodulatory, anti-scarring, anti-microbial, pro or anti-angiogenic (surface dependent), and tissue growth promotion. Because of these, AM is a functional tissue for the treatment of different pathologies. The AM is today part of the treatment for various conditions such as wounds, ulcers, burns, adhesions, and skin injury, among others, with surgical resolution. This review focuses on the current surgical areas, including gynecology, plastic surgery, gastrointestinal, traumatology, neurosurgery, and ophthalmology, among others, that use AM as a therapeutic option to increase the success rate of surgical procedures. Currently there are articles describing the mechanisms of action of AM, some therapeutic implications and the use in surgeries of specific surgical areas, this prevents knowing the therapeutic response of AM when used in surgeries of different organs or tissues. Therefore, we described the use of AM in various surgical specialties along with the mechanisms of action, helping to improve the understanding of the therapeutic targets and achieving an adequate perspective of the surgical utility of AM with a particular emphasis on regenerative medicine.

“…The applications of human amniotic membrane are constantly expanding, so that further reports can be found, e.g., on the implantation of hAM on pancreatic anastomosis after pancreaticoduodenectomy ( 234 ), for palatal epithelial-connective tissue reconstruction ( 235 ) or for the treatment of open myelomeningocele (MMC) and lipomeningocele (LMC) ( 236 ). The hAM is used to improve the post-tonsillectomy recovery by reducing post-operative pain and bleeding and promoting the wound healing process ( 237 ) and in airway reconstruction following chondrosarcoma resection ( 238 ). Another approach is the treatment of liver fibrosis.…”

The human amniotic membrane (hAM) is the inner layer of the placenta and plays protective and nutritional roles for the fetus during pregnancy. It contains multiple growth factors and proteins that mediate unique regenerative properties and enhance wound healing in tissue regeneration. Due to these characteristics hAM has been successfully utilized in ophthalmology for many decades. This material has also found application in a variety of additional therapeutic areas. Particularly noteworthy are the extraordinary effects in the healing of chronic wounds and in the treatment of burns. But hAM has also been used successfully in gynecology, oral medicine, and plastic surgery and as a scaffold for in vitro cell culture approaches. This review aims to summarize the different graft preparation, preservation and storage techniques that are used and to present advantages and disadvantages of these methods. It shows the characteristics of the hAM according to the processing and storage methods used. The paper provides an overview of the currently mainly used application areas and raises new application possibilities. In addition, further preparation types like extracts, homogenates, and the resulting treatment alternatives are described.
