摘要
Burn contractures of the extremities present a clinical challenge. Flexion contractures are more common than extension contractures. The first component of treatment is adequate contracture release. A number of different methods are available for resurfacing the wound and these are reviewed. An algorithm is presented which permits a simple approach to managing burn scar contracture of the extremities. (C) 2006 Elsevier Ltd and ISBI. All rights reserved.
