Abstract: Post burn contracture of knee joint is one of the common problems of lower limb burn. . It impairs the lower limb function and presents cosmetic defects. Severe contracture of knee is a challenge for proper reconstruction. 20 patients were treated from January 2018 to December 2019 with age range from 8 to 50 years. 10 patients were included in release with split skin grafting (group A) and 10 patients in medial & lateral flaps along with split skin grafting (group B). The range of pre-operative extension deficit was 48 to 110 degree in group A. In group B the range of pre-operative extension deficit was 50 to 110 degree. Mean value of Immediate postoperative extension deficit remaining was 19.6 in group A and 6.9 in group B. Total number of stretching was 20 in group A and 6 in group B. Medial and lateral flaps in comparison to split skin grafting alone gave a better outcome in severe post burn contracture of knee joint with minimum number of post operative stretching.
