title: [Improvement of healing of pedicled skin flaps and free skin grafts (animal experiments)].
abstract: A combined therapy in order to improve the healing of dermatoplasties is presented. Epicutaneous application of oxygen is combined with injection of a vasodilating drug. The results from experiments on 25 rabbits showed accelerated healing, smaller necroting areas, and improved circulation in pedicled skin flaps of well as in free cutaneous grafts. All results are statistically secured and are confirmed by histologic examinations. The method is uncomplicated and very effective.
