Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a device for stretching the skin. Background technique
[0002] Stretching of the skin is used in surgery to obtain skin for transplantation and to seal large wounds, in particular by closing the wound edges.
[0003] It is known from DE 4444130 A1 that two fastening elements are adjustable relative to each other on a guide rod extending in the desired direction of extension of the skin by means of a threaded shaft. The fixation element is formed by a stopper with hooks that can penetrate the skin. The hooks of the two fixing elements penetrate into the mutually opposite edges of the wound, so that the wound is in the middle region between the fixing elements. If the fixing elements are moved relative to each other, the wound edges are closed. The tensile force acting on the skin of the wound edge leads to increased tissue growth which facilitates and allows the closure of the wound edge.
