Abstract
Only a few papers on the problem of foot burns can be found in the easily accessible scientific literature. In Central Asia foot burns are widespread, because many people, especially children, walk barefoot in summer, and because the heated sandal is still used for keeping warm in winter. In the Samarkand Inter-Regional Burn Center in Uzbekistan, the following method of treatment was developed: initial surgical debridement of the wound, necrectomy with application of chemotherapeutic medications and early necrectomy, the removal of necrotic tissues and preparation the wound for early autodermoplasty. This effective treatment method contributed to the restoration of foot function in patients, lessened their joint deformities and post-burn contractures/deformities, and also shortened their hospital stay.
