Kuban doctors regrow the skin on a schoolboy's head.
After being attacked by a pack of dogs, a boy from Korganinsk lost almost 80% of his scalp. The extent of the injury shocked even experienced experts. The child was first taken to the regional hospital, then to the regional children's hospital, and after his condition was stabilized, he was transferred to the Research Institute-KB No. 1.
The seven-hour operation was performed by Professor Sergey Bogdanov and the burn center team. Doctors grafted skin from the right thigh and used cellular technology with fibroblasts to speed healing.
The transplanted skin has taken root completely. The patient gains strength and continues on the road to recovery.
