Comparative study evaluates granulation and contraction in skin grafting using two artificial dermal substitutes after cancer excision, indicating clinical implications.
Objectives: Two-stage reconstruction using an artificial dermis followed by full-thickness skin grafting is commonly performed after facial skin cancer excision, allowing definitive reconstruction after histologic confirmation. However, clinical differences in granulation speed and defect contraction between artificial dermal substitutes remain incompletely characterized.
