Postburn breast deformity is a sequela of severe scar contraction of the burned chest. During the past 3 years, 24 female patients with such deformities required reconstruction, the surgery was performed in our department. These patients, the types of the deformities and the techniques used for reconstruction have been reviewed. For mild deformities (10 patients) reconstructions with skin grafts and local skin flaps were found to be satisfactory. For deformities which affected the mammary development (14 patients), mammary prostheses directly or under the soft tissue obtained by skin expansion or musculocutaneous flaps were used. In three of our patients, reduction mammaplasty or mastopexy was needed to symmetrize the breasts.
