Abstract
Collagen substitutes represent a good option for burn scars release. Authors describe a new technique using prefabricated flap associated with collagen substitute. This technique is illustrated by a scar contracture removal on a young child located on the dorsum of the hand and wrist using a pedicle axial flap and a collagen substitute. Neo-collagen prefabricated flap is a new sophisticated surgical technique regarding the flap technique due to the possibility to create by patient cells themselves neo-fashioned flaps much more adapted to the recipient site and decreasing sequels on the donor site.
