Abstract
Heparin with its ability to dissolve the fibrin clot exerts its major effect in the early stages of wound healing by depriving the fibroblasts of their scaffold. Heparin inhibits cross linking of collagen and accelerates its degradation. There is faulty orientation of the collagen fibrils in the heparinized wound. It may be concluded that heparin interferes with wound healing.
