The Reverdin Graft: The Forgotten Skin Transplant

Abstract

This article describes a series of four patients for whom a Reverdin graft was performed. The Reverdin graft, also known as a pinch graft, is a method to promote epithelialization for superficial wounds. The intervention is minimally invasive with a short learning curve. The procedure and its advantages and disadvantages are discussed in this case series. This pinch graft is a widely accepted, minimally invasive intervention to accelerate the epithelialization of wounds.
