Tensing and stiffening of skin grafts.

Many surgeons have difficulty in cutting small split thickness skin grafts of consistent thickness and width. We demonstrate techniques using equipment and supplies almost always available for expeditious cutting and handling of small split thickness skin grafts. The methods suggested should allow surgeons to eliminate some of the problems that they have had with this basic technique of reconstruction.

Treatment of "trap door deformity.".

We have shown the use of two techniques for preventing or treating undesirable sequelae noted so often following the closure of gouging or beveled U- or V-shaped flaps. These simple expedients have prevented "trap door deformities" in many hundreds of repairs carried out over the the years. Other modalities and precautions are mentioned.
