Abstract
A system is presented for the application of tie-over dressings. Following skin grafting, the graft is secured with a tie-over dressing covered with a sheath of 3-way stretch fabric. The fabric is secured with the aid of staples. This system is easy to apply and is useful for securing grafts in otherwise difficult anatomic locations.
