Composite Grafts
Composite Grafts
INTRODUCTION
The use of skin grafts dates back to Hindu culture over 3000 years ago when the Tilemaker caste in India reported the successful use of skin grafts from the buttocks to repair defects of the nose, lip, and ear caused by mutilation as punishment for crimes such as adultery and theft.1,2 The first reports of successful full-thickness skin graft (FTSG) and split-thickness skin graft (STSG) use in the Western world did not appear in published works until the 19th century.1
Although primary closure and local flaps are typically favored to reconstruct post- Mohs surgical defects for optimal color and texture match, skin grafts play an important role in dermatologic surgery. The practicing dermatologic surgeon should be skilled in the selection, harvesting, and placement of FTSGs, STSGs, cartilage grafts, and composite grafts. Skin grafts can be used for the reconstruction of a broad range of surgical defects of varying sizes, shapes, and depth across the entire cutaneous surface.
