What this Trial Is About
This multicenter real-world study evaluates the efficacy and safety of a novel technique for rapid intraoperative construction of tissue-engineered skin using autologous epidermal stem cells (EpiSCs) for repairing difficult-to-heal wounds. Eligible patients are randomized to receive either: (1) the experimental intervention (rapidly constructed EpiSCs-loaded scaffold combined with split-thickness skin graft via one-step or two-step procedure), or (2) control intervention (acellular scaffold combined with split-thickness skin graft). The primary outcome is the complete wound healing rate at 4 weeks post-surgery. Secondary outcomes include wound recurrence, scar quality (VSS/POSAS), functional recovery (sweat test), mortality, amputation rate, and safety profile.

Who Can Participate
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if you...

- Completed wound bed preparation with no necrotic tissue and controlled infection
- Signed informed consent and agreement to use tissue-engineered materials and participate in long-term follow-up
You will not qualify if you...
- History of allergy to allogeneic/xenogeneic tissue-engineered scaffolds or collagen materials
- Severe immunosuppression such as HIV/AIDS or long-term immunosuppressant use
- Malignant tumors, uncontrolled systemic infection (CRP > 50 mg/L), or organ failure (Child-Pugh Class C)
- Mental illness preventing compliance with treatment or follow-up
