Abstract OBJECTIVESTo share our experience of an extensive calvarial reconstruction in a severely burn-injured, elderly patient in a 2-stage procedure utilizing a novel biodegradable temporizing matrix (NovoSorb BTM), followed by autograft. MATERIALS AND METHODSA 66-year-old patient with 75% full-thickness burns, including 7% total body surface area head and neck, with calvarial exposure of approximately 350 cm(2), complicated by acute renal failure and smoke inhalation injury. Exposed calvarium was burred down to diploe and biodegradable temporizing matrix was applied. Over the next 29 days, the biodegradable temporizing matrix integrated by vascular and tissue ingrowth from the diploe. Delamination and grafting occurred, however, at 43 days postimplantation of biodegradable temporizing matrix due to skin graft donor-site constraints. RESULTSGraft take was complete, yielding a robust and aesthetically pleasing early result (26 days post-graft application). CONCLUSIONSBiodegradable temporizing matrix offers an additional resource for reconstructive surgeons faced with fragile patients and complex wounds.
