Cutaneous Wound Healing

The treatment of wounds is being revolutionized by new therapies, including gene therapy, bioengineered skin and other methods in advanced biology. This volume examines the current state of the art and the emerging methods of treatment. Cutaneous Wound Healing explains the normal molecular and cellular functions that occur when a wound heals, as well as dysfunctional events, such as a chronic wound that won't heal or an ulcer. Such dysfunctions signal an imbalance in the body, which is explained, along with possible treatments. A mini-atlas in the back is an indispensable reference tool.Falanga, Vincent is the author of 'Cutaneous Wound Healing' with ISBN 9781853172045 and ISBN 1853172049.
