A severe contact burn from an exhaust pipe at the lower extremity: Primary macrovascular reconstruction was found to be effective
Contact burn is a challenging injury to manage, often penetrating very deep through the skin and into the muscle. The temperature and duration of contact with hot objects determine the burn depth. A 42-year-old man driving a motorbike fell down during a traffic collision. He unfortunately slid under...
