title: [Micro-autotransplantation of the skin. Changes in size and morphology of neo-skin].
abstract: A new technique of wide wound skin epithelialization by free transplantation of autologous skin fragments 1 mm2 in size is demonstrated. The experiments were carried out on strainless rats of different age, 100 per cent epithelialization of wound 5 mm2 in grafting skin micro-autotransplantation (MATR) was observed. The primary effectiveness of wound closing square to MATR square was 1:20. However, as a result of wound contraction the effectiveness (on neo-epidermis square) was finally 1:15 in old rats. During histological analysis hyperplasia of the epidermis was marked and decreased gradually. Skin MATR method is considered as organ-typical culture in vivo.
