Treatment and prevention of post-burn contractures of fingers in children

Post-burn scar contractures of fingers and hands are among the severe pathologies, especially among children. Children suffering from such contractures lag significantly behind their peers, both in physical and psychological development. According to recent reports, there has been an increase in the frequency of post-burn scar contractures of the fingers of the hand, and the frequency of disability for this reason reaches 40%. Post-burn scar deformities of the fingers of the hand are characterized by a pronounced shortage of skin resources suitable for reconstructive and reconstructive interventions, which significantly complicates the treatment of these patients.
