[Catamnestic study of 92 cases of burned patients: medico-legal considerations]

The authors have examined 1478 burned or scalded patients of the Plastic Surgery Institute of the University of Parma from 1967 to 1976; they have considered particularly 92 cases who showed more than 20% of burned skin. For these patients they have considered many data of medico-legal interest in order to facilitate the estimate of the personal damage in penal and civil law.
