Homograft Skin: A Versatile Biologic Dressing
AORN Journal, 1969The most important step during the recovery of the burn patient is the conversion of the open wound to a closed wound. The covering may be from regeneration of skin from residual epidermal elements or by the application of autograft. In large or untidy wounds, attempts have been made to use substitutes for the patient’s own skin.

The Hyphecan cap: a biological fingertip dressing
Injury, 1998An occlusive biological dressing, the Hyphecan cap, was evaluated in the management of full-thickness pulp defects of fingers and thumb in 20 consecutive patients. The cap was applied directly to the tip of the injured finger and allowed to separate gradually over the course of several weeks as new skin regenerated.

Biological Dressings for Skin Graft Donor Sites
Archives of Surgery, 1973Three methods of donor site management were tested in 17 patients to determine if any resulted in faster wound healing. Gross inspection and biopsies revealed no differences between donor sites left uncovered or those treated with fine mesh gauze. However, porcine xenograft coverage resulted in a significant incidence (35%) of increased inflammation ...

BIOLOGICAL DRESSINGS FOR EXPOSED VASCULAR GRAFTS
The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1975The frequent application of split thickness porcine skin grafts to cover an exposed vascular repair is a reasonable alternative to amputation in patients with severe extremity injury. It is essential that soft-tissue debridement be complete and at least one wall of the exposed vascular repair be supported by healthy, viable muscle.

Biological Dressings in Burns—A Review
Annals of Plastic Surgery, 1980A history of the development of the various biological dressings is presented. Substances currently in use--homografts, heterografts (including amniotic membranes), collagen-based dressings, and synthetic films--are reviewed in terms of their indications for use, method of application, future, and advantages and disadvantages.

Pigskin xenograft as biological dressing in radical vulvectomy
Gynecologic Oncology, 1984Wound infection and breakdown constitute the most common complication of radical vulvectomy and groin lymphadenectomy. The use of pigskin xenograft as biologic dressing when the skin edges cannot be closed primarily without tension after radical vulvectomy and groin lymphadenectomy is described.

Growth Peptide Release From Biologic Dressings: A Comparison
Journal of Burn Care & Rehabilitation, 1996Biologic dressings are believed to stimulate wound healing in a variety of wound types. Cryopreserved allograft skin (CAS) is used as a biologic dressing for excised wounds, partial-thickness wounds, and meshed split-thickness skin grafts, and the use of allogenic or autologous cultured epithelial sheets (CES) has been reported to enhance healing of ...

The use of biological dressings in radical vulvectomy
European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology, 1980The use of biological dressing techniques accelerates recovery from radical vulvectomy combined with lymphadenectomy. Our earliest interest in the field arose as a result of the morbidity rate which ensued subsequent to surgical therapy of cancer of the vulva.

Honey: A Biologic Wound Dressing.
Wounds : a compendium of clinical research and practice, 2016Honey has been used as a wound dressing for thousands of years, but only in more recent times has a scientific explanation become available for its effectiveness. It is now realized that honey is a biologic wound dressing with multiple bioactivities that work in concert to expedite the healing process. The physical properties of honey also expedite the
