[Early surgical treatment of low-voltage electric burns of the hand in children].

Electrical burns give not more than 8% in the structure of burns in children. Most of the children suffer from burns by electrical current of 220 V, and invalidisation of the children can result from inadequate surgical treatment. Advantages of early operative treatment (primary or delayed necrectomy with different kinds of primary skin plastic) are proved as compared with traditional plastic of the granulating wounds. This method can be considered to be the method of choice in treatment of children with low voltage electrical burns of the hand.
