Artificial scalp grafts replac e Lucy Osborns lost scalp
A long report traces Lucy Osborn of New Medford Connecticut who sustained a severe head injury in 1874 and later received a pioneering grafted scalp. More than 14 000 donor skin fragments from volunteers and doctors funded a six year procedure at St Luke's New York with gradual growth toward a full scalp. The article details the operations, setbacks, and progress, including graft failure and eventual partial success.
