Abstract
Large skin defect is often treated by the skin graft. However it is a technically difficult method. We reported two cases of large skin defect of the foot which were treated using a conservative approach, the film-dressing therapy. The therapy was simple, and consisted of washing and dressing the wound with a film. Wound healing was achieved in few months without any sensory disturbance. The method is technically easy and lack of cosmetic problems. Based on the current results we recommend this technique for large skin defects.
