Graft failure occurred in 384 (25.9%) cases and reoperation was required in 297 (20.0%) cases. At 1\u2009year, the wound was healed in 91.5% of the cases. Logistic regression analysis showed that peripheral arterial disease, diabetes, use of immunosuppressive medication, and wounds located in the foot significantly increased the risk of graft failure, while wounds located in the chest and those secondary to trauma, burn, or cancer excision had significantly lower graft failure risk. Cox proportional hazards analysis showed that wounds of the hand, forearm, and thigh as well as those secondary to trauma and burns were associated with higher rates of wound healing at 1\u2009year. Wounds in feet, wound duration, lower limb edema, peripheral arterial disease, use of antipsychotic medication as well as wounds secondary to surgical complications, venous insufficiency, diabetes, and other comorbidities were associated with lower wound healing at 1\u2009year.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The present study identified several risk factors associated with poor outcome after skin grafting.
