Feedback:
A xenograft, such as Oasis, is a temporary cover that will be rejected in days to weeks and will need to be replaced or removed at that time. A porcine graft originates from a pig. Autologous skin cell isolation grafting requires a 5 × 5 cm sample of skin that is separated and sprayed on the wound. Cadaver skin and or stem cells from umbilical cord blood are grafting material that is harvested from another human.
