Use of Pericranial Flaps with Dermal Substitute for Scalp Reconstruction: A Case Series

Conclusions: Full-thickness defects of the scalp and forehead with bone exposure provide a reconstructive challenge for plastic surgeons.

Two-staged reconstruction with local pericranial flap provides a safe and efficacious reconstruction that minimizes hairline distortion, contour irregularity, and donor site morbidity.
