Abstract:
In regard to the good regeneration of the skin in the facial area surgical therapy in burns can be postponed up to the 2nd week. By then deep 2nd degree burns are healed. The flap procedures are rarely indicated, they are necessary only if bone is exposed. Meshgraft is contraindicated. It is mandatory not to delay escharotomy of the ears in regard to the problem of chondritis. The same approach should be followed in 3rd degree damage of the eye lids.

Burn injuries occur when the skin and underlying tissues are damaged due to exposure to heat, electricity, chemicals, radiation, or friction. They can vary in severity, from minor superficial burns to severe deep burns that can be life-threatening.
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...
