Abstract
BACKGROUND: Victims with severe burn injuries require specialized and high-tech care. The treatment results of such patients, as a rule, depend on the timing of the transfer and the volume of surgical treatment aimed at removing necrotic tissues and restoring the skin in conditions of a shortage of donor resources. In this regard, the development and implementation into clinical practice of innovative techniques for the temporary closure of burn wounds with synthetic coatings and the creation of optimal conditions in the wound for engraftment of skin grafts with a high perforation index.
 СLINICAL CASE: This paper demonstrates a clinical case of successfully treating a child with a critical area of deep burn injury by flame (carriage trauma) using early surgical treatment, innovative wound dressings, and cellular technologies.
 DISCUSSION: We consider the transfer to a specialized department of a multidisciplinary hospital essential in successfully treating a patient with a large burn area. Under burn center conditions, surgical treatment was performed to remove the necrotic tissues in the largest part of the deep lesion before inflammatory reactions developed. Subsequently, active surgical techniques were used to prepare the wounds for delayed plastic closure. The use of wound dressings and the introduction of cell technologies into clinical practice ensured successful patient treatment due to the early adaptation of skin autografts and risk minimization of their regression, and acceleration of epithelialization in the cells.
 CONCLUSIONS: The early transfer of a severely burned child to a specialized burn center, active surgical techniques, the use of innovative wound dressings and cellular technologies in the treatment of a patient with a critical area of deep burn lesions made it possible to save a life, successfully restore damaged skin, and create optimal conditions for starting early rehabilitation measures.
