Fasciotomy is a surgical procedure in which the fascia, a layer of connective tissue that surrounds muscles and other structures, is cut to relieve tension and pressure. In fasciotomy, the surgeon will make an incision in the skin and fascia to release the pressure, and the incision is then closed with sutures or staples.
An escharotomy is a surgical procedure in which incisions are made through thickened, burned skin (eschar) to relieve tension and promote blood flow to underlying tissues.The procedure can be performed either open (with a scalpel) or closed (with a sharp instrument inserted through a small puncture in the skin).
Skin grafting is a surgical procedure in which skin is removed from one area of the body (the donor site) and transplanted to another area (the recipient site) to cover a wound or burn.
Recovery after a fasciotomy, escharotomy, and skin grafting can take several weeks or even months and will depend on several factors, including the extent of the surgical procedures, the patient’s overall health, and the patient’s ability to follow postoperative instructions. It’s important for the patient to follow their surgeon’s instructions and attend all follow-up appointments to ensure a successful recovery.
