Abstract
- Fiften patients had their split-thickness skin-donor sites treated open using topical thrombin solution. This technique was more convenient compared with commonly using compression dressing technique. Application of topical thrombin solution to the donor sites quickly provided complete hemostasis and became dry within forty-eight hours. Thereafter an almost pain-free donor site and uncomplicated healing was followed in all cases. The two cardinal advantages of this treatment are thought to be followings; 1) It markedly reduces the period of discomfort from the donor site. 2) It encourages rapid, uncomplicated healing of the donor site.
