Abstract
:
Twelve adult male mongrel dogs were divided into two equal groups to study the effect of thickness on graft contraction, in group I the thickness of each graft (split-thickness skin graft and reversed dermal graft) was 0.3 mm., in group n the thickness of each graft (split-thicknessskin graft and reversed dermal graft) was 0.56 mm. The grafts wereused to reconstructbilateral buccal mucosal defects (1 X 2 cm) where split-thickness skin grafts were applied on the right side and reversed dermal grafts were applied on the left side. It was found that after 3 months postoperatively contraction of (0.3 mm) reversed dermal grafts was about 64% while the contraction of (0.3 mm) split-thickness skin grafts was about 64.5%. Graft contraction for (0.56 mm) grafts was only about 40% for the reversed dermal graft and about 45% for the split-thickness skin graft. Histologic examinations showed that the affinity of oral tissues to the dermal graft was more than the split - thickness skin grafts. It is concluded that reversed dermal graft is still gaining more benefits over split-thicknessskin grafts and the thicker the reverseddermal graft the lesser the contraction.
