Abstract
Deep burns of the face & lips often lead to scarring and contraction of the circum-oral tissues with a marked reduction in the size of the oral aperture. Such burns are most commonly caused by electrical contact, for example, children sucking
electric
plugs, or as a result of chemical burns and the exposture to flame.
Once having burns, burned tissue may contract and reduce considerably the size and mobility of the mouth ; therefore bring up the resultant functional disturbance, verbal difficulty, even digestive difficulty, and poor appearance, which fall into
difficulty in social acceptability, caused by burns.
In our department, 2 patients who were complain of functional limitations and esthetic problem owing to scar contracture, were visited, and we treated this microstomia with scar excision, graft and flap technique, and postoperative intensive
physical
therapy. We obtained relatively favorable results, thus report this cases with literature review.
