Skin Graft And Flaps (Compromized)

A skin graft is a transplanted tissue without its blood supply which is transferred during skin grafting surgery, a type of surgical grafting where transplantation of skin is performed. A graft consists of a section of skin including epidermis and dermis of variable thickness that has been completely separated from its blood supply and transplanted to a recipient bed. Reconstructing complex wounds is accomplished by shifting or transferring tissues to the wound from a different part of the body. The area from where the skin is borrowed is called the donor site.
