Uso de expansores cutáneos en Cirugía Plástica Pediátrica

intro_obj: Los expansores cutáneos son una valiosa herramienta terapéutica en Cirugía Plástica. Esta técnica permite obtener una cobertura cutánea de color y textura similar a la piel adyacente, con baja morbilidad del área donante, en comparación con otras alternativas. Sin embargo, es un procedimiento por etapas y no está exento de complicaciones que pueden minimizarse mediante una meticulosa planificación y ejecución, única forma en la que la calidad de los resultados justifica su empleo. La mayor parte de las publicaciones hacen referencia a su uso en adultos, por lo que se consideró de interés presentar la experiencia la de la Unidad de Cirugía Plástica del Hospital Clínico de Niños Dr Roberto del Río (Chile), con 32 pacientes pediátricos en los que se realizaron un total de 48 expansiones cutáneas. Se analizan las indicaciones, resultados y complicaciones de la técnica, comparando los resultados con otros descritos en la literatura al respecto.
