Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Mini autogenous skin grafts	Mini autogenous skin graft	we take the autogenous skin graft from the same patient then cut it into small pieces then we spread it over the burn wound on one limb then cover these small pieces with homogenous skin graft taken from another person.
Autogenous skin graft	Mini autogenous skin graft	we take the regular autogenous one piece skin graft from the same patient and cover the burn wound on the other limb then we make a comparison between both limbs

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
The major outcome is to specify if the regular single piece autogenous skin graft is better than the new technique that uses small pieces mini autogenous skin grafts for treatment of post burn wounds in children. or vice versa?	2 years	the spread of the small pieced autogenous skin grafts that are covered with homogenous skin graft over post burn wounds in children may give better results than the regular single pieced autogenous skin graft
