Abstract
between the graft and recipient site, which was evaluated with photo analyzer in Photoshop software. Results: The grafted skins were compared between groups. Clinically, TPD and light touch were better (lower thresholds) in the wrist group (P < 0.05). Moreover, The amount of skin contracture, color difference between grafted skin and recipient site, and hair follicle counts were less in the wrist group (P < 0.001). In both groups, there were no ulcer and fissuring. Conclusions: For fingertip injures, full thickness skin grafts harvested from the wrist have significantly better cosmetic and functional results including better TPD and light touch, less hair follicles, less color difference, and less contracture.
