title: [Skinallograft and skin bank].
abstract: The skin (homogeneous skin) hervested from the human (corpse) is called cryopreserved skin or Arograft (freezing homogeneous preservation skin) without decreasing physiological (viability) of the skin. This homogeneous skin is recognized by a living body material and world Monkey that is the nearest the ideal. It came for the skin bank network system of the multi facilities participation type to be constructed in our country in 1990's, for 53 facilities to participate now, and to grow up as a skin bank network where the main burn facilities in our country were able to be covered. Moreover, the coordinator who belonged exclusively to the skin bank was set up, and system construction with a high quality or more became possible from communications with the skin offer family by doing the collection, preservation, and the supply work. It adopted with the Kinki skin bank last year, and it started newly as Japan skin bank network (JSBN). After the establishment in 1994, the offer of the skin was received from 214 people every 11 years until 2004 in Japanese skin bank network (JSBN). Moreover, the skin of 472 times every 295 burn patients has been supplied 2004 in Japanese skin bank network (Figure 1). Fcatassei that remains epidermal element when clinical result that transplants homogeneous skin is considered? It was a good adjustment to the burn at each Unit, and even burn index 40-80 came to admit the improvement of the mortality rate of 10-20% in the cooking stove with the highest lifesaving effect. Even if the fault of the rejection is considered, a clinical effect of freezing the homogeneous skin is high.
