[Treatment of 151 deeply burned hands in the early stage].
The paper presents the treatment of 151 deeply burned hands out of 294 burned hands of 210 cases. During 44 months, 907 burned patients were treated in our department. It is learned that the first three weeks after burn is the key opportunity for preserving hand functions. In this period, active treatment can reduce the deformity of the hand and shorten the time of treatment. For wound with infection or not, skin burn only or complicated by injury of tendon, nerve, muscle, or with exposed bones should be covered with various ways and treated actively in the first three weeks.
