Fish Skin Graft: Narrative Review and First Application for Abdominal Wall Dehiscence in Children
Summary: Acellular fish skin grafts (FSGs) are tissue-based products created by minimally processing the skin of the Atlantic cod ( Gadus morhua ). The FSG is rich in omega-3 and facilitates tissue regeneration by supporting revascularization and ingrowth in the proliferation and remodeling phases o...
