On the basis of experimental and clinical investigations the authors have shown that extensive burns in patients with true deficiency of donor resources might be treated by the method of micro-transplantation of the skin which consists in plasty of the wounds by pieces of auto-skin of small size. The reduction of size of the skin pieces gives the enlargement of the total line of marginal epithelialization and great plasty coefficient as compared with traditional methods of surgical treatment.
