Where this comes from

Abstract

Trauma, disease, surgery, or congentital defects can cause soft tissue losses in patients, leading to disfigurement, functional impairment, and a low quality of life. In the lack of available effective methods to reconstruct these defects, acellular adipose matrices could provide a novel therapeutic solution to such challenge.
