Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Facial burns present significant acute and reconstructive challenges. It has long been our practice to excise facial burns unlikely to heal in a timely manner in order to reduce the risk of aesthetic and functionally debilitating scar contractures. We present our approach to the acute surgical management of facial burns. |
