Background: A descriptive study was conducted at SIMS from December. 2002 to November 2005 to see the results of exposed skin grafting in various surgical conditions
Method: One hundred patients underwent exposed skin grafting. Most of the patients had surgical wound after excision of carbuncle, diabetic foot debridement, due to trauma and due to burn these wounds are dressed daily until they became clean, red granulation. We applied split thickness skin graft
Results: In this study 56 were male and 44 were female with a median age 42.6 years in male and 43.3 years in females. Thirty five percent [35%] had surgical wound after excision of carbuncle. Twenty five percent [25%] had surgical wound after debridement of diabetic foot and 25% had wound after trauma. Eleven percent [11%] had wound after burn. In all these patient we performed delayed exposed grafting and results are alright without any rejection. Early exposed skin grafting performed in 3% of cases after release of contracture and after mastectomy in 1 male patient. One patient after mastectomy had partial rejection
Conclusion: Exposed skin grafting is a simple and cheap method and can be done in both de/aye granulating wound and early surgical wound
