Abstract

Neck burns are common occurrences which expose the victim to functional and aesthetic complications that may be very serious. The Douera Hospital Plastic Surgery Department in Algeria treated 123 cases of neck burn sequelae between 1982 and 1987, during which period 40 patients with major cervical sequelae were subjected to one or more procedures of surgical correction. More than half of these had over 3 years’ regression.
