Abstract

Free skin grafts have long been used as an essential surgical procedure to treat skin defects due to burns, trauma or illness, requiring skin transfers from sufficient, non-marked areas. Usually, free skin grafts are covered by simple pressure dressings or tie-over dressings. However, under conditions of wide, concave or irregular wounds, graft removal has been problematic due to instability. We report a case in which gauze-based negative-pressure wound therapy using a Y-connector was indicated for the opportunity to cover both limbs with free skin grafts all around, providing successful wound care.
