Treatment of 100 burned hands by early excision and skin grafting.

The analysis of 101 cases has shown that early excision and grafting is the choice for hand burns. The indications are deep second degree and third degree burns. The excision is performed before the 4th post burn day, by tangential excision or direct knife dissection according to the site and depth. Immediate covering of all excised areas, usually by split-thickness skin autografts, is essential. The combination of early excision and grafting, active physiotherapy, Jobst compressive gloves and hydrotherapy guarantees the best cosmetic and functional results.

[Sequelae of burns of the lips (author's transl)].

This report attempts to clearly define the polymorphic nature of sequelae from burns of the lips by introducing a simple classification based on the direct or indirect, and minor, moderate, or major nature of the affection. Understanding of the processes involved in scar formation is essential for developing a rational plan for surgical repair. However, the ideal situation would be to prevent scar formation by fixation-compression, the use of an orifice shaper, or by excision-grafting of facial burns associated with these procedures.
