What Is the History of AlloDerm?

AlloDerm was first released in 1994 by LifeCell, a biotechnology firm specializing in tissue grafts and blood-cell preservation products. AlloDerm is their primary product. In 2008, the firm was acquired by hostile takeover by Kinetic Concepts Inc, a company specializing in wound care systems.

In the past several years, numerous studies have been released about the increased need to remove and replace AlloDerm tissue grafts when compared to more traditional skin grafts.
