Abstract

Burns are one of the most common injuries among the children. Scald injuries tend to be the most common type of burn injury under the age of five, accounting for over 65% of the cases. Despite appropriate initial treatment and compressive therapy, contractures are common after deep burn. The most common and functionally limiting are web space and hand contractures. Autologous platelet rich plasma (APRP) has gained its importance in medical field since it was found to have wound healing and scar modifying properties. Hence, use of   Autologous Platelet rich plasma (APRP) has been incorporated into the management of this case for a good outcome.
