Role of Dermal Extract and Collagen Scaffold in Management of Post Burns Raw Area
Journal Title: New Indian Journal of Surgery - Year 2017, Vol 8, Issue 2
Abstract
The quality of skin wound healing can be improved by the application of collagen scaffolds as biological dermal substitutes. Dermal extract helps to improves wound healing and quality of the scars. They serve as a scaffold into which cells can migrate and repair the injury. In the current scenario where in many biological and cellular engineering skin substitutes are available, wound management is a multimodality treatment with use of multiple available methods to augment wound healing at various levels. In this article we have described the role of dermal extract with collagen scaffolding in management of post burn raw area.
