Abstract: 

Human acellular dermis and human stem cells have been used in clinical applications, including wound healing, soft tissue reconstruction, and sports medicine procedures. A variety of methods exist to prepare these useful types of biomaterials. However, in Mexico, their use remains an unconventional therapy. This article illustrates a case study in the management of a wound with cranial soft-tissue loss (scalp tissue) through the use of an autologous transplant of acellular dermis and mesenchymal cells. We suggest that based on this case study, human acellular dermis may be a useful scaffold for the healing, reconstruction, and growth of soft tissues.
