Abstract:
22 pediatric patients with the deep burn at grade VII (male: 15) received complete and early necrotic removal and one-stage thin cutaneous transplantation have shown that the technique reduced the edema, fluid excretion and local pus and shortened the duration for burn healing comparing with the necrotic removal and waiting for the generation of granular tissue to transplant. The study concluded that it should remove radically the necrosis, prevent from blood clotting in the transplant and operate within the first 7 days of burn.
