Abstract

The studies performed on rats have shown that healing of square full-tissue skin wounds depends on their location. Thus, the healing of wounds on the belly was faster and more complete than that of dorsally located ones. Regeneration of belly skin resulted in the formation of new tissue with a typical network of fibers and skin folds. On the back epithelial connective tissue scars were formed.
