    Area of Science:

    • Reconstructive surgery
    • Burn management
    • Hand surgery

    Background:

    • Hand involvement is a frequent complication in severe burn injuries.
    • Approximately one-third of patients with extensive burns (over 30% body surface area) present with concomitant hand burns.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present and discuss the management approach for burned hands.
    • To cover both the acute phase of injury and secondary reconstruction of deformities.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of clinical experience at Shriner's Burns Institute and The University of Texas Medical Branch Hospitals.
    • Description of management strategies for acute hand burns.
    • Outline of techniques for secondary reconstruction of hand deformities.

    Main Results:

    • Data indicates a significant prevalence of hand burns in severe burn cases.
    • The study details a comprehensive approach to managing hand burn injuries.

    Conclusions:

    • Effective management of acute hand burns is crucial.
    • Secondary reconstruction plays a vital role in restoring function and form for burned hands.
