USO DE ENXERTOS EM CIRURGIAS RECONSTRUTIVAS APÓS TRAUMAS GRAVES: UMA REVISÃO INTEGRATIVA

This article provides a comprehensive review of the use of grafts in reconstructive surgeries for patients with severe trauma, highlighting the differences among autologous, allogeneic, and synthetic grafts and their efficacy in specific contexts. Autologous grafts are known for their high integration rates and low immune rejection, while allogeneic and synthetic grafts expand therapeutic options, albeit with higher risks of complications. Technological advances, such as 3D bioprinting, allow for the customization of grafts, enhancing aesthetic and functional outcomes. However, these methods still face limitations, such as vascularization issues and immune rejection risks. This study emphasizes the importance of a careful and personalized selection of graft type to maximize patient quality of life and satisfaction. In conclusion, while autologous grafts remain the gold standard, the development of synthetic and bioprinted materials represents a promising frontier for reconstructive medicine.
