A technique for microskin grafting for treating extensively burned patients is presented. Eight extensively burned patients were treated in this way with encouraging results. The recipient area covered by microskin grafts ranged from 2.5 per cent to 44 per cent of the total body surface area (TBSA). The expansion ratio of the micrografts was 15:1 maximum. The micrografts took well in seven patients with the healing time ranging from 22 to 45 days post-operatively. One case failed because of sloughing of the homograft. The advantages of the microskin grafting are: (1) economical use of autografts, (2) the procedure is simple, (3) there is less scar on the recipient site. This new technique is effective, simple and feasible in extensive burns.
