Abstract:
In reconstruction of large scalp and skull defects, the usefulness of microvascular free tissue transfer is manifest. We have performed 4 scalp and skull reconstructions by free serratus anterior osteomuscle flap transfer. The usefulness of serratus anterior osteomuscle flap for reconstruction of combined, extensive scalp and skull defects is emphasized.
