Abstract
- A 72-year-old female with 10% TBSA flame, mostly partial thickness, was treated topically with 10% mafenide acetate cream and 1% silver sulfadiazine cream. On day 28, burn wound was nearly healed but black colored, 3~5 mm sized maculopapular lesions developed in healed facial burn wound. Similar skin lesion progressed in both hand and both wrist. All skin lesions were peeled off. On day 30, biopsy was performed. An excisional biopsy of the lesion in the left cheek revealed benign papilloma. On day 44, we excised all skin lesions and performed STSG. All graft sites were healed 14th day after STSG.
