Post-burn reconstruction during growth and development
Abstract
Modern plastic and reconstructive surgery continues to significantly improve the functional and aesthetic post-burn sequelae in children. It has become a major factor in restoring mobility, aesthetic appearance, self-esteem, and quality of life. The entire spectrum of plastic reconstructive procedures should be available to offer the patient an optimal solution to his problems. Therefore, early interdisciplinary co-operation between pediatric and plastic surgeons is mandatory to plan and perform post-burn reconstruction in children and adolescents.
