Twenty-one woodstove-related burns of the hand and forearm in preschool-aged children were reviewed concerning nature and mechanism of injury, treatment, and clinical course. Two distinct patterns of injury were seen: with infants less than 14 months of age, burns occurred almost exclusively when the child touched the stove intentionally, unable to distinguish it from another piece of furniture; in older children burns were always "accidental." Most burns epithelialized spontaneously with surgical intervention and without functional disability. Protective devices are available and could prevent childhood burns from woodstoves.
回顾了21例学龄前儿童因木炉导致的手部和前臂烧伤病例，涉及损伤的性质和机制、治疗及临床过程。观察到两种不同的损伤模式：14个月以下的婴儿，烧伤几乎均为孩子故意触摸木炉所致，他们无法将其与其他家具区分开来；年龄较大的儿童烧伤则均为“意外”。多数烧伤可自行上皮化，无需手术干预，且无功能障碍。有防护装置可供使用，能够预防儿童因木炉导致的烧伤。
