Is there an easier way to autograft skin in chronic leg ulcers? ‘Minced micrografts’, a new technique

Abstract

Our preliminary report shows that this technique results in a greater therapeutic success (18 of 20 cases) in healing chronic leg ulcers, a common pathology that often affects outpatients treated for very long periods at home or in the Dermatologist's office. In our experience, this new and successful reparative possibility makes 'mince grafting' a recommendable procedure.
