BACKGROUND: NA OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the safety and feasibility of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in the treatment of giant congenital melanocytic nevi (GCMN) in children with human acellular dermal matrix (HADM) transplantation.

PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 22 children with GCMN were included in the study. They were divided into an experimental and a control group. The experimental group used the method of HADM with Razor Autologous Skin Graft combined with PRP to repair skin and soft tissue defects after giant nevus resection (Group A, n = 11). The control group was treated with HADM with Razor Autologous Skin Graft (Group B, n = 11) only. To compare the survival rate of skin grafts, we used the Vancouver Scar Scale (VSS) for the postoperative skin graft area and the Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS) to compare the two groups of patients.

RESULTS: There was no statistically significant difference in age, gender, location of giant nevi, and pathological classification between Group A and Group (P > 0.05). The survival rate of skin grafting and the VSS and POSAS scores of scar tissue in group A were superior to those of group B (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONS: PRP has improved the survival rate of composite skin grafting in children with GCMN, and long-term satisfactory prognosis of scar healing. Therefore, we consider this treatment method a valuable contribution to clinical practice.
