Until recently, the main methods of surgical treatment of deep burns remain plasty with split skin grafts and skin and fat flaps on a temporary or permanent feeding stem (Indian, Italian, stalked, counter triangular flaps). The use of various modifications of dermatome plasty makes it possible to save the lives of many burned people doomed to death in the past. However, the disadvantages inherent in the above methods of dermatoplasty do not allow us to fully implement a saving and restorative approach in treating deep burns and their consequences, in particular burns of IV, IIIB degrees, localized in functionally active areas of the body, and deep burns with an area greater than 30% of the body surface.
