title: [The importance of local therapy of burns in infants and toddlers].
abstract: The present paper summarizes 10 years of experience in the treatment of 403 burned children at the age up to three years. A local therapy constitutes an important part of the treatment and always influences the final result. The application of 1% silversulfadiazin (Dermazin) markedly decreased bacterial contamination of the burned surfaces. Tangential necrectomy interventions were performed in deep dermal burns and burns affecting the whole thickness of the skin. In the sucklings a more conservative way of surgical therapy proved successful. A long-term observation of the patients proved to be necessary.
