Abstract
in English, French

The use of skin substitutes in burn surgery and in the treatment of acute or chronic wounds is constantly evolving. For years, scientists have been researching skin substitutes that can be used in place of autologous skin. New products are regularly developed and approved for clinical use. In this article, we take a look at the skin substitutes most commonly used in Europe and briefly summarize the current clinical experience of our centre.

L’utilisation des substituts cutanés dans la chirurgie des grands brûlés et dans le traitement des plaies aiguës ou chroniques est en constante évolution. Depuis des années, les scientifiques recherchent des substituts cutanés qui peuvent être utilisés à la place de la peau autologue. De nouveaux produits sont régulièrement développés et approuvés pour l’utilisation clinique. Dans cet article, nous examinons les substituts cutanés les plus utilisés en Europe et résumons brièvement l’expérience pratique de notre centre.
