    • Reconstructive Surgery

    Background:

    • Vascularized calvarial transfers are advantageous in reconstructive procedures.
    • Understanding the anatomical basis is crucial for flap design.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To summarize the anatomical basis of vascularized calvarial flap design.
    • To present the technical details of temporoparietal and frontoparietal calvarial flaps.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of anatomical structures (soft tissue, vascular, osseous).
    • Description of surgical techniques for two specific calvarial flaps.

    Main Results:

    • Detailed anatomical considerations for flap elevation.
    • Step-by-step technical descriptions of temporoparietal and frontoparietal flaps.
