Dissertation note: Thesis (M.Sc.) -Cairo University, 2023. Summary: Scars can hurt, itch, and make people feel uncomfortable. Contractures can also limit mobility. It may also be challenging to integrate patients with hypertrophic scars into a culture that has come to value welfare, individuality, and outward attractiveness more and more. Aim: to invesitigate the healing potential of pulsed high intensity laser therapy in situations with hypertrophic scarring following burns. Subjects and Methods: From Cairo University Hospitals, 40 patients with hypertrophic scars and ages ranging from 20 to 45 were chosen. Pulsed high intensity laser therapy together with conventional therapy will be administered to Group (A), the study group. The controlled members of Group (B) receive conventional therapy. Ultrasonography and the Vancouver Scar Scale were used to evaluate the patients. Results: Both traditional therapy (deep friction massage) and high intensity laser therapy had a substantial therapeutic effect in the management of post- burn hypertrophic scar, and high intensity laser therapy generated better improvements in scar thickness and cosmetic appearance. Conclusion: High- intensity laser therapy works well for treating post-burn hypertrophic scars. Summary: شارك 40 مريض في هذه الدراسة يعانون من ندبات ما بعد الحروق. وقد تم استبعاد المرضى الذين يعانون من مشاكل خطيرة في الكلى و القلب، المدخنون، النساء الحوامل، المرضي الذين يعانون من سرطان الجلد، المرضي الذين لديهم امراض صبغية او وشم اثناء تلقى العلاج و المرضى الذين لديهم جروح حديثة. لدى المرضى الكثير من القلق بشأن التندب الضخامي بعد الجراحة والاصابات وخاصة الحروق، ويواجه المصابين موقفًا صعبًا. قد تقلل الندوب الضخامية بشكل كبير من جودة حياة الانسان من حيث الاداء الوظيفي والمظهر

Bibliography: pages 62-73.

Scars can hurt, itch, and make people feel uncomfortable.
Contractures can also limit mobility. It may also be challenging to integrate
patients with hypertrophic scars into a culture that has come to value welfare,
individuality, and outward attractiveness more and more.
Aim: to invesitigate the healing potential of pulsed high intensity laser
therapy in situations with hypertrophic scarring following burns. Subjects
and Methods: From Cairo University Hospitals, 40 patients with
hypertrophic scars and ages ranging from 20 to 45 were chosen. Pulsed high
intensity laser therapy together with conventional therapy will be
administered to Group (A), the study group. The controlled members of
Group (B) receive conventional therapy. Ultrasonography and the Vancouver
Scar Scale were used to evaluate the patients.
Results: Both traditional therapy (deep friction massage) and high intensity
laser therapy had a substantial therapeutic effect in the management of post-
burn hypertrophic scar, and high intensity laser therapy generated better
improvements in scar thickness and cosmetic appearance. Conclusion: High-
intensity laser therapy works well for treating post-burn hypertrophic scars.
