Résumé
Dog bite avulsion injuries of the head and neck are difficult to manage in pediatric patients. This study assesses the outcomes of using porcine urinary bladder extracellular matrix (UBM) for reconstruction of these complete avulsion injuries. Five male pediatric patients underwent reconstruction using UBM. Two (40%) patients underwent reconstruction of the nose; the other 3 patients underwent reconstruction of the forehead, forehead/glabella, and auricle. The average size of the avulsion defect was 7.0 ± 2.4 cm
