Burn injuries to the breast can be associated with pain, asymmetries, and significant social stigma. Burns to the breast bud in the young female may inhibit normal breast development and result in either significant asymmetries or amastia, making the treatment of breast burn injuries challenging. A retrospective chart review was conducted on all female patients under the age of 21 years admitted to our institution for breast burn injuries from January 1, 2008 to December 30, 2018. Patients were included if they had follow-up reconstructive procedures for breast burn injuries many days after their acute-phase treatment. Ninety-six patients aged 1 to 20 years have been admitted to our institution with burned breast injuries. The mean age of this cohort (n = 96) was 6.4 \u00b1 4.8 years with a mean percent TBSA of 36.3 \u00b1 21.4 and a mean time since injury from admission of 2279.1 \u00b1 2284.1 days. Flame burns (66.8 percent) were the most common etiology for breast burn injuries, followed by scald burns (22.8 percent), in this cohort. The mean body mass index was 22.7 \u00b1 6.3 kg\/m2. Follow-up for reconstructive procedures was 7.2 \u00b1 5.6 years after injury date. Our institution\u2019s 10-year experience of 96 female patients with severe burn injuries has enhanced our understanding of reconstructive techniques. The location, size, anatomic extent, type of deformity, and symmetry must all be assessed before any treatment plans, which may need to include a combination of modalities.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jbcr\/irz196","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,5,2]],"date-time":"2020-05-02T04:40:17Z","timestamp":1588394417000},"page":"568-575","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Reconstruction of Severe Burns to the Breast in Pediatric Patients: A 10-Year Experience"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"41","author":[{"given":"Farzin","family":"Sadeq","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Research, Shriners Hospitals for Children\u2014Boston, Massachusetts"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ryan","family":"Cauley","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts"},{"name":"Division of Plastic Surgery, Department of Surgery, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Matthew A","family":"Depamphilis","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Research, Shriners Hospitals for Children\u2014Boston, Massachusetts"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Daniel N","family":"Driscoll","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts"},{"name":"Division of Plastic Surgery, Department of Surgery, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Richard","family":"Ehrlichman","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts"},{"name":"Division of Plastic Surgery, Department of Surgery, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,2,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"2020050202090574600_CIT0001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"425","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cps.2015.12.005","article-title":"Breast reduction in the burned breast","volume":"43","author":"Powers","year":"2016","journal-title":"Clin Plast Surg"},{"key":"2020050202090574600_CIT0002","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"412","DOI":"10.1016\/j.burns.2007.05.001","article-title":"Breast burns are not benign: long-term outcomes of burns to the breast in pre-pubertal girls","volume":"34","author":"Foley","year":"2008","journal-title":"Burns"},{"key":"2020050202090574600_CIT0003","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"65","DOI":"10.1097\/00000637-198807000-00013","article-title":"Reconstruction of postburn female breast deformity","volume":"21","author":"Guan","year":"1988","journal-title":"Ann Plast Surg"},{"key":"2020050202090574600_CIT0004","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"718","DOI":"10.1097\/00006534-198212000-00011","article-title":"Breast reconstruction in the burned adolescent female (an 11-year, 157 patient experience)","volume":"70","author":"Neale","year":"1982","journal-title":"Plast Reconstr Surg"},{"key":"2020050202090574600_CIT0005","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"180","DOI":"10.5999\/aps.2017.01039","article-title":"A rare approach?
