A new stamp--graft method of free autodermoplasty was used in 36 out of 70 patients operated upon with using stamps only and their combination with pedicled graft or partly put secondary sutures. It proved to be as effective as all other modifications of stamps with different methods and gave better final results as compared with the known publications concerning possible healing of dermatome split grafts known to have wider prospects in the treatment of mainly great burn wounds. Stamps and grafts were found to be more resistant to harmful effects of bad granulation medium, more reliable in adaptation and healing and to be good stimulators of the natural reparative regeneration. The optimum conditions were created by local oxybarotherapy, hemotransfusion by heparin--treated blood or direct transfusions and by preventing a purulent reaction by the administration of chlorophyllid, sulfomylon and enzymes.
