Amniotic fluid is a complex and biological reservoir that provides mechanical cushioning and has many nutrients required for fetal growth and development. During our main research works about the fetal surgery of congenital facial defects, we reviewed several recent articles about the effectiveness and composition of amniotic fluid. Among these review processes, amniotic fluid, as the convenient medium to store sking grafts, was focused especially for its growth factors and rich nutrients, and we summarized some experimental investigations of skin grafts stored in amniotic fluid in rats. We reviewed mainly the article, “Turhan-haktanir N. et al. Histological assessment of skin grafts in amniotic fluid and saline. J Plast Surg Hand Surg 2010;44:226-30.”
