Abstract
Electrical burns constitute 3–5% of all burn cases. In developing countries, this ratio increases up to 21–27% and the mortality rate is reported to be between 3.75% and 58.8%. Most of the acute burns are life threatening initially which require resuscitation and require various types of surgical interventions such as eschar excision or split-thickness skin grafting, depending on the size, location and depth of the lesion. In this case we will assess the role of INTEGRA in the scalp electrical burns. INTEGRA is a manufactured acellular dermal regeneration template composed of a bilaminate sheet of cross-linked bovine tendon collagen and shark glycosaminoglycans (chondroitin-6-sulfate) with a silicone sheet cover.
