Immunosuppression following excision of burn eschar and syngeneic grafting in major thermal trauma.
Recent reports have suggested that very early excision (less than 24 hours post-burn) and primary closure of burn wounds might circumvent the immunosuppression which follows severe thermal trauma. The total body surface are (TBSA) involved in burn injuries of human subjects at risk for significant post-burn immunosuppression is large enough to require grafting. In the present study cell-mediate...
متن کاملJet-Black Eschar
t first glance, the baby appeared healthy. She was pudgy, pink-cheeked and impeccably clean, and rested quietly in the mother’s arms—until we disturbed her; then she cried with the weary wail of an infant hurting for days. “This one came first,” said the mother, pointing to a quarter-sized red, swollen nodule to the right of the baby’s spine. Embedded in its center was a jet-black eschar the si...
متن کاملAccumulative eschar after burn
Eschar formation is a potential sequela of burn injuries. Definitive management may include escharectomy and eschar debridement. After eschar removal, the wound can be covered with a skin graft or reepithelialization. For prolonged refractory eschar on the fingertips, topical use of rb-bFGF after debridement can achieve an optimal outcome.
متن کاملStem cells in burn eschar.
This study compares mesenchymal cells isolated from excised burn wound eschar with adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) and dermal fibroblasts in their ability to conform to the requirements for multipotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). A population of multipotent stem cells in burn eschar could be an interesting resource for tissue engineering approaches to heal burn wounds. Cells from burn esc...
متن کاملRickettsia conorii Transcriptional Response within Inoculation Eschar
BACKGROUND Rickettsia conorii, the causative agent of the Mediterranean spotted fever, is transmitted to humans by the bite of infected ticks Rhipicephalus sanguineus. The skin thus constitutes an important barrier for the entry and propagation of R. conorii. Given this, analysis of the survival strategies used by the bacterium within infected skin is critical for our understanding of rickettsi...
