After meticulous surgical planning, patients underwent contracture release and split skin grafting/z-plasty followed by rigorous splintage and physiotherapy. Majority of the patients were in the age group of 11-30 years (63%).70% of the Results: patients sustained burns in the range of 21-40% and 80% were due to ame burns.46.66% (14) of patients had severe contracture while 13.33% (4) had extensive mento-sternal adhesions. 90% of the patients underwent release + SSG while 10% underwent z-plasty. Postoperatively cervico-mental angle of 100-120 degrees was achieved Skin grafting is a simple, reliable and safe operation however postoperative splinting is n Conclusion: ecessary. The use of skin grafts continues to deliver excellent results with adequate restoration of cervico-mental angle.
