Bilateral Transposition Flaps With Split-Thickness Skin Grafting of Secondary Defects After a Large Mohs Micrographic Surgery Defect With Exposed Calvarium

چکیده
Large, full-thickness defects of the scalp create a common reconstructive dilemma following Mohs micrographic surgery. In cases with exposed calvarium, transposition flap(s) followed by split-thickness skin graft(s) to secondary defect is an effective method reconstruction that allows for same-day repair, full coverage, and good functional outcomes. Herein, we present large utilizing bilateral flaps grafts defects.
