Abstract

Over a period of 15 years, 109 patients with 148 dog bites of the face were treated in one Plastic Surgery Unit. In this retrospective review the patterns of injury and treatment are defined with particular reference to specialised anatomical structures involved and the problems of repair. In this study, 87 patients (80%) were under 15 years of age.
