abstract="From January 1993 to December 1997, 179 patients with electrical injuries were admitted to our burn unit. There were 55 patients with high-tension injuries and 124 patients with low-tension injuries. A high incidence of amputation (42%) is one of the characteristic sequelae of high-tension injuries, but no patients in this group of burns died. Early and serial debridement of necrotic tissue is our treatment of preference. The patient needs extensive rehabilitation and psychiatric support.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
