| Popis: |
Synthetic Biodegradable Temporising Matrix (BTM, NovoSorb; PolyNovo Biomaterials Pty Ltd, Port Melbourne, Victoria, Australia) has proven useful in the resurfacing of large burns,1 necrotising infection debridement2 and tumour excision with exposed bone.3 We present a case report of a large BCC invading three aesthetic subunits of the face which was successfully reconstructed with BTM, split-thickness skin graft with subsequent adjuvant radiotherapy due to the high risk nature of the BCC. We present our series of images illustrating the timeline of BTM, and the ability to achieve a good skin colour match with minimal contour deformity, even in the event of post operative radiotherapy use. |
