A simple method for forehead unit reconstruction

The supratrochlear and supraorbital vessel-based island flap was used to avoid excessive scarring during reconstruction of the unilateral forehead defects after surgical excision of a malignant tumor. This method had a number of advantages: operation time was short, it was a one-stage procedure, the technique was relatively simple, a good match of the texture and color could be achieved, and scars were inconspicuous.
