Abstract:
Correct treatment of traumatic facial lacerations is essential to achieve the best cosmetic and functional outcome. This article discusses wound management, anatomy and techniques to repair lacerations of scalp, eyelid, nose, lip and ear. Scalp lacerations should be sutured in layers. Injury to the eyelid mandates a careful examination of the eye. Accurate adaptation of the lid margin is required. Nasal septum haematoma must be drained and the nares and alar margins aligned. The key to proper repair of lip laceration is alignment of the vermillion border. Injury to the ear can often be closed in one layer.

Fractures: Bone Repair
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the...

Burn Injuries
The damage results in the death of skin cells, which can lead to a massive loss of fluid. Dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, and renal and circulatory failure follow, which can be fatal. Burn patients are treated with intravenous fluids to offset...
