ResumoIn a search for an invisible skin donor site and a comfortable dressing for the donor site, a study was designed in which the scalp was used as the donor site and Duoderm was applied as the dressing. The study contained 18 children with minor burns. A Duoderm dressing on scalp donor sites showed a normal healing time. In using the scalp as a donor site the patient can be mobilized very quickly after the operation and the scar is hidden and invisible 1 month postoperation.
