These complications can be managed in several ways, for example using fat or dermo-fat flap as autologous tissue transposition appears appropriate for simultaneous chin augmentation with cervico-mental angle improvement. We aimed to delay skin grafting to increase the chance of complete integration. From November 2015 to February 2023, 12 patients who underwent surgical treatment with fat or dermo-fat flap and delayed skin graft were included in the study. In this prospective study, we measured the cervico-mental and Legan's angles using the Digimizer Software pre- and post-operatively on 8 (7 femaJPRAS open300-307https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC12008666biostudies-literatureAutologous Chin Augmentation with Cervico-mental Angle Correction in Burn Scar Contracture.PMC12008666MoalemKolae NMHesamirostami MSarparast LHesamirostami SfalseAutologous Chin Augmentation with Cervico-mental Angle Correction in Burn Scar Contracture.Microgenia, retrogenia, cervico-mental angle obtusity, and lower lip ectropion are complications of severe burn scar contracture and are associated with functional and psychosocial disturbances.
