Role of zinc in surgical nutrition
Abstract
Redistribution of zinc in tissues was induced during zinc-free TPN in PEM, and a marked decrease in skin zinc level may contribute to skin lesions and to impaired wound healing in skin. And clinical studies suggest that plasma zinc level is one of the sensitive markers for stress following surgery.
