Summary

Twenty two patients requiring skin coverage were subjected to mid-dermis grafting. Thirty one mid-dermis grafts were applied and all the patients had simultaneous controls provided by split skin grafts. Take up of grafts was reasonably good. Mid-dermis grafts were permanent, and more stable then split skin. The greatest advantage lay in doubling the donor site potential.
