USE OF ROTATION SCALP FLAPS FOR TREATMENT OF OCCIPITAL BALDNESS

Abstract

SUMMARY We have used 25 rotation Scalp flaps to treat occipital baldness associated with fronto-parietal baldness (the third flap) and 35 such flaps for the correction of isolated occipital baldness (Figs. 4–6). We have not had any flap necrosis, and our patients have been well satisfied with the results of this surgery.
