Figure 3. PAT graft application. A: After debridement PAT grafts were adapted to the defect. B: Exposed extensor tendons and distal phalanx components were completely covered with PAT grafts. C: Immediate full-thickness skin grafting after adaptation of PAT grafts.

Figure 5. Full-thickness burns of the patient in his hand dorsum after exposure to the radiant heater. The patient had multiple amputations in different levels in his four extremities due to severe peripheral artery disease.

Figure 6. PAT graft application. A: Exposure of second extensor tendons right after debridement. B: PAT grafts were utilized over the exposed tendons.(Dorsum of index digit). C: Split thickness skin grafting was performed simultaneously.

Figure 8. The patient sustained from high-voltage electric burns in his lower extremity and right hand. Although he had a muscle flap reconstruction and skin grafting previously, there was still anterior tibial muscle tendon and tibial bone exposure at the injured site.

Figure 9. PAT graft application. A: 6 × 4 cm sized PAT graft was harvested from the abdominal region. B: PAT grafts were adapted to cover the exposed anterior tibial bone and tendon. C: 3:1 meshed split-thickness skin grafting was performed over PAT grafts and the rest of the defect.
