A nine-year-old boy who sustained severe grease-fire burns over his right scalp, face, neck, and trunk 14 months previously, presented with extensive alopecia over the right frontotemporoparietal scalp. Near complete coverage of the scalp defect was obtained with pretransfer expansion of the left temporoparietal scalp, followed by free-flap transfer of the expanded tissue to the defect. Pretransfer tissue expansion has the advantages of increasing flap surface area and minimizing donor site deformity. This case illustrates the applicability of pretransfer tissue expansion of free flaps, and demonstrates the excellent results achievable with free-flap scalp transfers.
一名14个月前右头皮、面部、颈部和躯干遭受严重油脂火烧伤的9岁男孩,出现右额颞顶头皮广泛脱发。通过术前扩张左颞顶头皮,几乎完全覆盖了头皮缺损,随后将扩张后的组织游离皮瓣转移至缺损处。术前组织扩张具有增加皮瓣表面积和最小化供区畸形的优点。本病例说明了游离皮瓣术前组织扩张的适用性,并展示了游离皮瓣头皮转移可取得的优异效果。
