title: [Repetitive thermal self-manipulation in borderline personality disorder].
abstract: Self-mutilations are one of the major characteristics of patients with borderline personality disorder (BPD). Thermal injuries of BPD should be treated by a plastic surgeon who is faced to a challenge in the plastic-reconstructive strategy because of the most complex psychiatric disease. This means the need of a multidisciplinary strategy. Based on 3 case reports such conflict between best plastic reconstructive treatment of the burns wound and the psychiatric limit with the appropriate therapy options are presented.
