Abstract: A skin graft preparing system includes a surgical device having a housing with a front end defining a forward direction and a rear end defining a rear direction for moving along skin in the forward direction. Cutting structure is moveably coupled to the housing for separating skin from the body where the cutting structure has a cutting portion. The cutting portion cyclically translates in the forward and rear direction without lateral movement. The skin graft preparing system also includes a skin graft preparing device having a base structure, one or more skin feeding structures, one or more skin preparing structures, and one or more skin collecting structures coupled to the base structure. The skin supporting structure from the surgical device provides the skin feeding structure of the skin graft preparing device.
