| Popis: | Prolongation of skin allograft survival by immunosuppression of burn casualties has been reported sporadically during the past two decades. Recently cyclosporin A (CycA) has been used effectively for such an indication. We report here two paediatric patients with extensive burns (85-95 per cent BSA) treated with fresh, family-related skin allografts that were rejected during CycA treatment after 14-18 days. One of these children survived while the other died with candida sepsis. |
