  • Beschreibung: <jats:p>As a therapeutic option, grafting of venous ulcers has not been very successfully received despite the different types of grafting methods. Currently, there are only a few controlled randomized trials offering clear guidance to clinicians. The development of artificially bioengineered skin constructs has led to a renewed interest in wound bed preparation, and preliminary successes suggest that the role of skin grafting could be studied in the current context.</jats:p>
