Galeal skin island flap in the reconstruction of scalp defects caused by missile injuries
Abstract
The use of the galeal skin island flap pedicled either on the superficial temporal or occipital vessels for coverage of scalp defects following neurosurgical treatment of cranial missile injuries, is presented. This technique was applied in seven consecutive patients. The defect was closed in all patients, however, only in three without complications. Indications, advantages and disadvantages of the treatment described are discussed.
