Lower l imb was the most common site of the subambient temperature burn. The deep II degree to III degree were the most common level, and the burn area was always small, often 1% of total body surface area. Most of patients were treated with changing dressings at cl inic and few patients needed hospital ization. Though the surface of wound could heal finally, and the wound healed well with no obvious scar in patients who received operation.
