Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
A keloid is formed when an abnormal deposit of collagen collects in a healing skin wound. Keloids can be a problem because they may require grafting after excision.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The tangential excision procedure involves excising burned tissue until normal dermal tissue is reached below the depth of the wound. The wound is usually covered with a split-thickness autograft. Early excision and grafting can reduce mortality and septic complications.
