Allotransplantation of cultured human skin.

Human skin allografts cultured for approximately 6 weeks on a solid medium were transplanted to non-related human recipients with skin defects of various etiology. Although based on this study no answer could be given to the question whether these grafts survived or were replaced by cells of the recipient, it was observed that in most cases the grafts were not rejected and remained in situ several months up to over a year.
