Tissue expansion is a recent advance in skin cover technique. Its empirical use has enabled many previously difficult reconstructions to be completed without recourse to distant flaps. Its high complication rate and lack of basic scientific understanding at present restrict its use to selected cases, but the quality of repairs possible by this method encourage further serious scientific study.
组织扩张术是皮肤覆盖技术的一项最新进展。其实践应用使许多以前难以完成的重建手术无需借助远位皮瓣即可完成。目前其高并发症发生率和缺乏基础科学认识限制了它仅用于特定病例，但这种方法所能实现的修复质量鼓励进行进一步深入的科学研究。
