First seen Feb 21, 2026 · Last updated May 21, 2026 · Updated 13 times
Summary
This study looks at whether using a numbing solution (tumescence) during skin graft harvesting helps the graft heal better in people having head and neck cancer surgery. About 58 adults will be randomly assigned to receive either the standard method or the numbing technique. The main goal is to see if tumescence leads to a higher percentage of graft take, which could mean fewer complications and less need for extra wound care.
