Extensive Loss of Cranium and Scalp Following Electrical Burns—Interesting Features
Small scalp defects can be repaired by mobilisation, rotation, transposition or advancement of local flaps. Conventional ‘visor’ flaps are not sufficient for covering larger losses. The remnant scalp even upto 50 percent can be used with advantage provided the temporal areas are intact and are in continuity with the undamaged portion of the scalp left out anteriorly or posteriorly. The cases of extensive loss of cranium and scalp following electrical burns are presented here to highlight some important observations.
