In this study, we discuss the factors that play a role in fetal wound healing and differentiate these with those at work in adult wound healing. According to the current literature, in utero scar-less wound healing may minimize or even prevent the facial dysmorphology associated with anomalies frequently encountered in plastic surgery clinics, such as cleft lip and palate. However, human fetal surgery has to date been recommended only for a minority of patients with life-threatening fetal conditions. Fetal surgery for craniofacial anomalies does not justify the inherent risks of surgery to both mother and fetus. Nevertheless, some researchers claim that in selected patients, should the maternal-fetal safety risks be considered to be at acceptably low levels and endoscopic surgery is indicated, fetal surgery can be safely performed. The restoration of structure and function is the primary goal in plastic surgery. With the help of further research that will hopefully reveal the mechanisms of fetal wound healing, a blueprint for ideal tissue repair may be attained in the future.Keywords: Cicatrix, fetal wound healing, surgery,plastic surgeryTurkiye Klinikleri J Med Sci 2005, 25:569-575
