Burn surgery has a glorious history in our country, but it still faces enormous challenges at present: the incidence of burn declines year by year, basic research and clinical diagnosis are more or less disjointed, national medical care and education system need to be further perfected, fusion of new technology lags behind, and army system adjustment in military hospitals is in progress, etc. We need to adjust strategies in time of peace, and prepare for challenges so as to create new splendor.
