The role of skin bank in the treatment of severely burnt patients

Original language description

The accessibility of suitable temporary covers plays the key role in the treatment of severe skin losses. Biological covers have got the longest tradition in the wound healing. Skin banks are engaged in their production and distribution. Already in 1973J. Moserová developed the methodology of harvesting pig xenografts. Later on, the shortterm and the long-term method of storage were verified (Böhm, Koníčková, Vogtová). In 1986, the Skin Bank in the Prague Burn Centre was established. In Prague Burn Centre the allografts are used very rarely, usually from the living donors, family members of the patients. Therefore, in our bank, we specialized in harvesting porcine xenografts. They are produced in three different forms - fresh, deep frozen in vapours of liquid nitrogen, and glycerolized. Porcine xenografts serve as a biological cover; they make barrier against infection and evaporation and protect the wound against desiccation. They are used namely for the treatment of superficial burn
