The purpose of this study is to appraise if various concentration of adrenaline containing tumescent has any significant role in bleeding at skin graft donor site bleeding through photographic assessment.

Tumescent solutions will be prepared by adding 30cc of Ringer's lactate and 10cc of lignocaine 2%, with 1cc of adrenaline of 1:200,000 (which will be prepared by adding 1cc of adrenaline of 1:1000 conc. with 200ml of normal saline marked as solution "A" and without adrenaline marked as solution "B" to form the two different tumescent solutions. Both solutions with be topically applied in soaked gauzes for around 10 minutes. Solution A will be applied over the anterior side of thigh while solution B will be applied over lateral side of thigh.

Tumescent solutions will be prepared around 10 minutes before applying. After 10 min Split-thickness skin graft donor sites will be harvested with a Dermatome adjusted on with a randomized setting to harvest a fixed depth of wound depth. After harvesting skin graft the donor site wound will be photographed.

The apparent severity of bleeding will be scored on an ordinal scale from 0 to 5 (0=no bleeding/staining, 1=minimal bleeding/staining, 2=mild bleeding/staining, 3=moderate bleeding/staining, 4=moderately severe bleeding/staining, 5=severe bleeding/staining by two independent surgeons. At last photographs will be compared with pre-infiltration records in each side. Skin graft donor and recipient site will be inspected on the 5th post-operative day
