Purpose: Evaluation of the effectiveness of the use of human decellularized amniotic membrane, both as an independent covering material and as a cell-free matrix for syngeneic regenerative cells of adipose tissue (stromal-vascular fraction – SVF, adipose tissue ‒ AT) in local radiation injuries (LRI) IIIb-IV severity in laboratory animals. Material and methods: 42 laboratory animals were studied. LRI modeling was carried out on an X-ray at a dose of 110 Gy. Animals were randomized randomly and divided into 6 groups depending on the type of treatment: 1st group (K) ‒ control group animals after irradiation did not receive specific treatment; the 2nd group (Gl) ‒ after irradiation, medical glue BF-6 was applied to the ulcer surface on the 21st day; 3rd group (Am) ‒ animals after irradiation on the ulcer surface was applied decellularized amniotic membrane, fixed with interrupted sutures on the 21st day; 4th group (Am-Gl) ‒ animals after irradiation on the ulcer surface was applied decellularized amniotic membrane, fixed with medical adhesive BF-6 for 21 days; 5th group (SVF-Gl) ‒ after irradiation, the SVF AT at a dose of 0.4×106 cells was applied to the ulcer surface after irradiation, followed by fixation with BF-6 medical glue for 21 days; the 6th group (Am-SVF) ‒ after irradiation, SVF AT was applied to the ulcer surface at a dose of 0.4×106 cells under the decellularized amniotic membrane, fixed with interrupted sutures on the 21st day. Results: On the 112th day, complete healing of the ulcer was observed in 100 % of animals in the Am-Gl group, in 70 % in the Am and Gl groups. There was no complete healing of the ulcer in the SVF-CGl and Am-SVF groups. The greatest reduction in the area of the total altered skin from 21 to 112 days of the experiment was noted in the groups Gl-SVF (34.7 %), K (31.6 %), Am-SVF (30.7 %). In the Am-Gl and Am groups, a reduction in the area of the total altered skin was recorded by 24.6 % and 14.7 %, respectively. In the GL group, the reduction in the area of the total altered skin was the smallest, by only 13.5 %. Conclusion: The use of a decellularized human amniotic membrane fixed with medical adhesive BF-6 can be considered as a promising method for the conservative treatment of LRI of the skin.
