31 patients with post-burn face and neck cicatricial deformities were operated on during the period of 2005-2007. Triangle and trapeziform skin-fascial flap plasty was performed in 24 patients, 7 patients were treated using vascularized tissue flap transplantation. The choice of the method was based on the author's classification of post-burn skin defects. Flap engraftment was observed in 96,8% patients.

Comparative Study
[Cold injury as a cause of stable changes in microcirculation].
Using laser Doppler flowmetry comparative evaluation of microcirculatory condition and regulatory components of vascular tone in lower limbs was carried out in 40 patients with local cold injuries in late reactive period and 12 reconvalescents with trophic disturbances. Microcirculation index decreased in all patients while neurogenous and myogenous vascular tone increased. ⋯ At the same time in reconvalescents changes in passive regulatory components of vascular tone increase and frequency of peak amplitude neurogenous variation decrease. Thus, cold impact results in stable changes of microcirculation and therefore in dysthrophic changes in affected tissues.
