One-Step Triple-Layer Reconstruction of an Exposed Calvarium in a Patient With Radiated Tinea Capitis

This report describes a single-stage triple-layer technique for the reconstruction of a large scalp defect with exposed bone in a patient with a history of radiation treatment, using 3 turnover pericranial flaps in conjunction with a Matriderm dermal substitute and split-thickness skin graft. This immediate multilayered reconstruction provides a long-lasting structural and aesthetic outcome, with minimal donor site morbidity and reduced complications.
