XPANSION® Micrografting System (Prod 10438)






About XPANSION® Micrografting System (Prod 10438)

XPANSION Micrografting System for split-thickness skin grafting via a minimized donor site. The XPANSION® System is a single-use disposable instrument kit for harvesting, expanding, and applying split-thickness skin micro-autografts for the treatment of chronic and acute wounds. The instruments were invented by Elof Eriksson, M.D., Ph.D., Chief of Plastic Surgery at Brigham & Women's Hospital in Boston, MA, and Professor at Harvard Medical School. The unique ability to "micro-morselize" a very small skin graft with the proprietary XPANSION® System delivers wound site coverage of up to 100 times the size of the donor site graft. This compares with only 9-10 times the size of the donor graft with the conventional dermatome techniques. Thus, the benefits of "micrografting" include exponentially greater wound coverage with reduced patient morbidity, delivered at a lower-cost facility setting.
