摘要

Due to its similarity of skin anatomy and physiology, the pig appears to be a well-suited animal model for pre-clinical studies of skin analogue transplantations. The choice of the location of the skin defect and appropriate post-operative measures are essential for the protection of the transplanted graft. This protocol describes in detail a porcine skin transplantation model including peri- and postoperative measures taken to improve and refine the studies outcome.
