Local findings of the patient one year after surgery. a. Dorsal side. The skin graft has been matured with only few hypertrophic scars. The scars in the lower back due to skin graft harvesting are not so obvious. b. Ventral side. Lateral margins of the skin graft can be observed in this view. There is no evidence of scar contracture. c. and d. Findings of the bilateral sides. The sheet skin grafts by the second surgery are remarkable.
