The use of xenogenic dermal matrices in the context of open extremity wounds: where and when to consider?
Optimal treatment of orthopaedic extremity trauma includes meticulous care of both bony and soft tissue injuries. Historically, clinical scenarios involving soft tissue defects necessitated the assistance of a plastic surgeon. While their expertise in coverage options and microvascular repair is inv...

Sumario: | Optimal treatment of orthopaedic extremity trauma includes meticulous care of both bony and soft tissue injuries. Historically, clinical scenarios involving soft tissue defects necessitated the assistance of a plastic surgeon. While their expertise in coverage options and microvascular repair is invaluable, barriers preventing collaboration are common. Acellular dermal matrices represent a promising and versatile tool for orthopaedic trauma surgeons to keep in their toolbox. These biological scaffolds are each unique in how they are used and promote healing. This review explores some commercial products and offers guidance for selection in different clinical scenarios involving traumatic wounds. |
