RESUMO
Skin defects may be due to several causes: trauma, surgical excision of malignant or benign, even malformative pathologies. The aim of this work is to report the interest of the LLL flap (L for Lozenge) (Dufourmental flap) in the coverage of the skin defects that sometimes may reach high dimensions or being located in areas of lower skin extensibility. We report a study involving 26 patients who all benefited from this technique having skin defects due to different causes and serving in different locations. LLL plasty allowed a first closure in all patients. The cosmetic result was good and no recovery was necessary. LL plasty was first described in 1962 to cover limited skin defects. However, it requires some precision in its execution. This is a simple and reproducible procedure with considerable interest for its potential in the coverage of cutaneous defects in the face and that can reach up than 8cm. The scar would be reduced if we took care to match the areas of sutures with the shaded areas of the face (groove ). While allowing a better distribution of tension, this technique has demonstrated its superiority compared to direct suture, which the indication is limited by the size of the defect and its location (peri-orificial ) and other techniques that are similar as the Limberg flap.

This paper is a retrospective epidemiological study of 152 burn patients hospitalized between 2006 and 2008. The patients were aged less than 20 years in 65% of cases. The sex ratio (m/f) was 1.18/1. A thermal origin was responsible in 84% of the cases. Flame was the cause in 56% of cases. The average burned body surface area was 28% and second-degree burns were the most frequent. In our study, the face and the neck were the body area most frequently involved. Prevention continues to be the best weapon to combat this problem, for which objective several measures are proposed.
RESUMO
La brûlure est un accident qui reste toujours très fréquent au Maroc, ce qui fait d'elle un problème de la santé publique. Les brûlures, quand elles sont graves ou profondes, entraînent de façon quasi inéluctable des séquelles fonctionnelles et esthétiques. A travers deux observations de deux enfants présentant des séquelles de brûlures graves, ayant retenti péjorativement sur leurs scolarités, on a essayé de mettre en évidence quelques facteurs incriminés dans cette tragédie (feu, petites bouteilles de gaz et le manque d'infrastructure, du personnel médical et paramédical, du matériel ainsi que de la prévention) comme étant une grande cause dans la survenue de ces séquelles. Le but de notre travail est d'énumérer ces différents facteurs intriqués, ainsi que de proposer quelques solutions, tout en insistant sur la prévention.
RESUMO
La main est fréquemment exposée aux brûlures, ce qui entraîne des séquelles cutanées. A partir d'une série de 14 patients suivis dans notre service sur une année, nous avons essayé d'établir la simplicité, l'efficacité et le rôle de la greffe de peau totale dans le traitement de ces séquelles (les organes nobles ne sont pas mis à nu). La greffe de peau totale associée à une rééducation efficace permet aux patients de reprendre la mobilité des mains dans les brefs délais.
