Background and Objectives:A wound is an injury or rupture on the surface of skin, which is caused physically, chemically, mechanically, or by heat.
Case Report:The patient was a one-month-old infant who admitted to the hospital with seizure. After physical examination, it was revealed that the left thigh had an extensive skin necrosis due to burn. After the debridement of the lesion, due to the extent of the area of the injury, the child needed to have skin graft according to the plastic surgery consultation.
