Treatment of third (AB) degree burns by applying a suspension prepared
from human placenta and fetal skin proves as effective as plastic sur
gery. This approach is particularly helpful when supplies of donor ski
n are limited, in the therapy of patients with polyvalent allergy, eld
erly and senile patients with a severe somatic pathology hampering aut
odermaplasty, in the therapy of children, and in cases of untreatable
infected burns.
